    Default Halide Fans

    Hi All,

    I have got a Bowini Halide unit and the cooling fans are quite noisy, does anyone have experience of what would happen if I disconnect them. The heat factor to the tank is not an issue as I run a chiller unit.
    Any thoughts.

    Mick.

    if you disconect the micro plug inside the unit (red and black wires) 9 times out of 10 they blow the fuse. if they have become noisy you can replace them using normal computer fans.
