Re: Heater life question
Yes, as stated in the manual. Caswell recommends to remove all of the heaters, pumps and annodes/Cathodes if your tanks will be sitting for any amount of time. I recommend taking them out immedialty after plating is done every day as I left one in chrome tank overnight and it disolved the rubber ends and contaminated my tank and that was very expensive mistake. It takes some time as you have to wash off each item.
I got a bunch of cheap 3 gal mop pails from walmart and filled with water, one for each tank. and just dropped them all into the clean water to clean them all out. this takes little time. just change out your water after each cleaning.
Hope this helps...
