    Default Ranco heat controller settings

    What temp are you keeping your tanks at and what differential setting are you using for the Ranco controller ? I currently have it set at 82 with a diff of 1, seems to cycle quite a bit.

    Thank alot.

    82F is the perfect temp. Is that part of your home fully insulated?

    It's against a outside wall, so I'm not sure how good the thermal barrier is. I need to time and see how long it comes on for and stays off for.
