Tub too COLD

[Beto510]

so im switching to tubs im tryin to get the temps right but my thermostat wont let my temps go higher than 88 F i have a BAH-100sc and the probe is between the UTH and the tub...any suggestions? can i put it inside the tub at all without it being harmful?

[Beto510]

Heeeeelllp!!

To clarify, the thermostat probe goes outside the tub, or between the tub and the UTH. The thermometer probe goes inside the tub right on the plastic where the UTH is.

The thermometer should read ~92*F. Do you have the thermostat turned up all the way?

[Beto510]

yes i have the themometer probe and thermst probe where theyre supposed to be and turnd the thermst all the way up to see if it would reach 92*F but it doesnt it keeps it at 88 would putting the probe on the outside of th UTH worl better then between the tub and UTH?

You could give it a try. Also, if you haven't already, try raising the tub a bit so there is some airblow below the UTH.

You may need a bigger UTH!

NOOOO!!!! haha...its a 30 galloon UTH so i doubt it...i just ran out of ideas...idk watta do

i place the probe else were and see if you can get the inside temp higher (like between 2 layer fthe plastic (tub thickness ) so it takes longer to get up to temp then just adust it to the temp your tub needs.


some like this text refernce


probe
plastic
plastic
under tank heater


that and can placea piece of plastic above the probe to limit some heat lost .. but i would seriously keep a close eye on the tub temps until get stable.
