The new Hydroponics chiller line is the next generation of TECO chillers--used by consumers and professionals for over two decades. New changes include an increase in cooling efficiency and improved usability, functionality, and durability.
EFFICIENT COOLING TECHNOLOGY
Internationally-recognized high-end compressors and titanium coaxial heat exchangers provide high performance, low energy consumption, and low noise levels.
BUILT-IN HEATER
The Hydroponics HY-1000 comes standard with a heater built into the unit (previously, had to be purchased and installed separately). The built-in heater provides better control over water temperatures and can be operated through the digital thermostat.
DIGITAL THERMOSTAT
Intuitive controller with accurate temperature detection from 60.8°F to 71.6°F. Closed loop temperature control system with an extremely tight differential of 1°C. Displays in °F or °C, and audible alarms for certain situations.
EFFICIENT DESIGN
A solid and durable structure designed to guarantee near perfect protection against corrosion. Rotatable in-set water connections, rotatable exhaust conveyor, and smaller form-factor help facilitate placement of chiller in confined spaces.
