I am wondering if I can set my Iwaki 100RLT pressure pump on a timer which will turn it off at night and back on in the day. This is a possible solution to heat buildup in my cabinet as this pump gives off quite a bit of heat when cooling the housing.
The question pertains to the stresses this action will present to the pump. Since it is not a power head, but an external pressure pump I want to ensure it will not be damaged with this off and on cycle.
Furthermore, since this is only my closed loop pump - this should not pose any major circulation/filtration issues for my system - more like a long cycle wave maker.
Thoughts?:wave:
Thanks ahead of time!
