Temp Control
« on: October 29, 2006, 21:31:02 »
I have a heater that is nearly impossible to get to in my sump.  What options are available to control this heater remotely?

I have a titanium heater that has an external control.  We keep the heater in the bottom of the sump and the controller on the wall.

If you do get a titanium heater make sure it is a good name brand though. I bought a Via Aqua it cost around $35 for a 300 watt, and did a great job for about a month. ::)

Ahhh, I thought he could get it in, but then wouldn't be able to control it easily due to space.  Thanks for the clarification.

Finnex has been good for me.  I got it at Premium Aquatics.  Check with the local vendors ie Joel and Scott, they may be able to get one at a good price for you.  I got a Won Brothers once.  Wouldn't go that route again.
