[kingator]

Hello fellow r2r members ..my Q is do chillers need to be calibrated ? currently running a jbj 1/10 chiller , my temp on it saying 78-79 while my apex is telling me 75-76 any info is greatly appreciated

depend which temperature you trust. either your apex or JBJ.
I have 1/3 JBJ chiller 78F My other thermometer stated 80F

im kind of leaning towards the chiller but still just want to make it 100% sure ......anyone else care to chime in ........

Can you get a regular thermometer and see what the actual temp is? Kinda like a 2 out of 3 deal.
