    Prevent Heater/Chiller From turning on so much

    I'm using the Apex temperature table to heat/cool my tank and was wondering how to put a buffer to prevent the heater/chiller from coming on so much. It's probably really simple and I'm just missing it.

    Use a wider hysteresis.

    What is yours set to now?

    I would remove the first three lines and replace them with something along the lines of

    Fallback OFF
    If Temp > RT+1.1 Then ON
    If Temp < RT+0.8 Then OFF
