Hi Guys

I have two Jager 150w heaters and both have a little condensation on the inside glass? they working perfectly fine though and the condensation is always in the same place.
Should I be worried at all?

Hi G55C - The condensation will eventually either kill the element or the controller - I would extract the workings, reseal with a bit of silicone and then re-use.

As long as they are working I wouldn't worry. Jäger are very good heaters.

They roughly only a year old so guess it back to the LFS then:blink1: although lets see if they actually do something as they told me this weekend that its mormal for that to happen?Well actaully one of the LFs's as I bought both at different shops. Now to find those slips...:wondering:

One of mine had condensation in it since I had it and no problems with it yet. But yes, I think it would be best option to have it replaced.
