The Hailea Water Chiller is an easy to use and the perfect addition to your hydroponics system to keep your nutrient solution at the optimum temperature of around 18-21C as growers can, at times, overlook the importance of this crucial area.

As ambient temperatures rise during the summer months (or the buildings heating is turned up to full during winter), this can increase the temperature of the nutrient solution, if it gets too warm, it can be an ideal breeding ground for Algae, which also reduces the amount of oxygen in the solution. This can lead to unhealthy plants with poor yields, or in a worse case scenario, root diseases such Pythium could potentially develop leaving you with no option but to cull your plants before the harvest date.

Now cooling your nutrient solution couldn’t be easier with the Hailea Water Chiller, it works by pumping the solution through a cooling unit, the temperature for which is set on the easy to use LED control panel, this then cools the solution, giving you peace of mind that your feed will be at the ideal temperature as well as algae and disease free.
