so i bought a used animal plastics 1756-10 with a herpstat classic thermostat. it is connected to heat rope/cable.
it has been hooked up for about 12 hours and the thermo is set for 89. my digital thermometer still is only reading 80 on the surface of the aspen. when i touch the heat rope it doeant feel warm at all.
how can i check the rope to see if its working other than hooking it up to full power? my infra red thermometer quit working after my son got ahold of it so the digital is all i have right now.
is there a way to make sure the herpstat is working correctly?
thanks for the help
