How to use the Boyu Nutrient Chiller:

When using your Boyu Nutrient Chiller, it’s important to keep the temperature between 18°C and 21°C because this temperature keeps your oxygen levels high, whilst stopping your plants from being shocked by the cold or developing diseases or algae.

Make sure to position your chiller outside of the grow area if possible, as they do generate heat when they are used. Position it at least 40cm away from walls on either side, and correctly spec the chiller for the volume of water being treated. You must also correctly spec the water pump to feed the chiller, as it’s imperative to get the rate of water flow through the unit right.

When using the chiller with a low reservoir (NFT/RDWC/RUSH system), make sure that you keep it in a well ventilated area and then locate the chiller input pump at the end of your tank that is nearest to where the chiller has been positioned for NFT. Alternatively, you can put the pump in the brain unit if using a RDWC or RUSH.

Then run a piece of 13mm ice line pipe from the outlet of the pump to the inlet of the chiller, as well as running a piece of ice line pipe from the outlet of the chiller to the furthest away end of your NFT tank. If using a RUSH or RDWC, simply chill the brain unit, as the water flow will quickly circulate around all the pots.

The chiller must be cleaned after every crop to remove any mineral deposits and lime scale. Just fill the chiller with clear pickling vinegar, leave for 24 hours, and then flush it with water. Ensure that you also set up an air circulator fan near the chiller to avoid any heat build up.
