Hi everyone
I just started to setup my RSM 250. The tank is in my basement which is cool room temp. I added RO water and salt and turned on the two pumps to help mix and dissolve the salt and set the thermometer to 76 degrees to help with the mixing.
The morning after I saw the tank temp was at 84 degrees. So I figured I'd turn off the thermometer. Two days after the tank is still running at 84 degrees with jus the two pumps on, no lights no thermometer. The basement temp actually dropped and is cool but the temp just won't go down. Is that normal for the RSM 250?
Summer is still not here and I just have two pumps running, imagine when I turn on the lights and summer gets here! I went out and got a deep blue kryos 1/10 chiller and hope that's up to the challenge.
Do the RSM's 250 really run that hot? I don't know how people run these tanks without chillers.
