    I have two snapper/dart hybrids on my closed loops. I also have a canister filter as a bandaid until my fuge is ready. :(

    It's been an extremely cool summer here so far. Tomorrows forecast is a high of 68. 50's at night, and won't get out of the 70's all week. I need more heat, lol.

    There's your heat source right there. Just one produces quite a bit of heat on it's own.

    :cry:


    I was afraid of that.

    So...I'm hoping that once my fuge gets installed and I have more volume things will even out. If not, I guess it's chiller time for me. Thanks for the input.

    In the interim I installed a 18,500 BTU A/C unit last night to cool the house to see if this has any affect over the next few warm days. :(

    When you mentioned the temps you were having I kind figured the Lake had to have something to do with it. I use to live in Duluth on Lake Superior so I know what they can do to the air temp.

    Everyone is talking about how hot it is, but it's very cool here for this time of the year, not just close to the lake. I turned the heat on in my truck on the way home from work last night. Weird weather.
