The Aquatop Platinum Series Quartz Heater is a premium aquarium heating device designed for both fresh and saltwater tanks. It utilizes shatter-resistant quartz glass and an analog design, making it straightforward to operate with a simple turn of a knob to adjust the temperature.
The primary function of the Aquatop Platinum Series Quartz Heater is to maintain a stable and desired water temperature within an aquarium. It features an integrated thermostat that allows users to set the ideal temperature for their aquatic environment. Once plugged in, an indicator light illuminates when the heater is actively heating the water, and turns off once the desired temperature is reached. This ensures consistent thermal regulation, which is crucial for the health and well-being of aquatic life. The heater is fully submersible and can be mounted either vertically or horizontally within the tank, offering flexibility in placement to optimize water flow and heat distribution.
The Aquatop Platinum Series Quartz Heater is designed for ease of use and versatility. It comes with suction cup mounts, allowing for secure attachment to the inside of the aquarium glass. Users should attach the suction cups to the upper half of the heater, away from the heating element, and position the heater in an area with good water flow. Before plugging in the heater, it is recommended to wait at least 15 minutes after installation to allow the internal thermometer to acclimate to the water temperature. A crucial safety feature is the "drip loop" arrangement for the power cord, which prevents water from traveling along the cord and reaching the electrical outlet. The heater is suitable for a wide range of tank sizes, accommodating various aquarium setups.
Proper maintenance of the Aquatop Platinum Series Quartz Heater is essential for its longevity and safe operation. Users should always disconnect the heater's power supply before performing any maintenance, cleaning, or removal from the aquarium. It is advised to wait 10-15 minutes after unplugging to allow the heater to cool down before handling it. The water level in the aquarium must always be maintained at or above the minimum water level line indicated on the heater to ensure proper functioning and prevent damage. Regular checks for any signs of damage, such as cracks or moisture inside the glass tube, are important; if detected, the heater should be disconnected immediately from the power supply. The device is not user-serviceable, and any repairs should be handled by an authorized service facility. The limited lifetime warranty covers defects in workmanship and materials, emphasizing the importance of proper handling and adherence to usage guidelines. Registration of the product on Aquatop.com and retaining the original receipt are necessary to be eligible for warranty service.
