    So I set the UTH to 88F hoping that the hottest parts can drop down to a more appropriate level.

    I'm still trying to figure out how to best optimize the heating to allow enough of a gradient while also hitting the desired temps. I no longer have to turn the UTH up as high to achieve the desired surface temps after installing the CHE. So now it's trying to find the right temp to set the UTH to.

    That 88F is surface temp, correct?
