I have a PIDed Quickmill Alexia, and I want to leave it on all the time. Anyone know if this would present a problem?

Thanks,

John

No problem at all in doing that, though your seals will degrade quicker. Why not just run it on an appliance timer set to turn on an hour before you get up and turn off shortly after you leave? You can also have it turn on again before you return home from work and shut off for the night after you pull your afternoon/evening shot.

Mainly just the grouphead gasket. Ive always left my machines on 24/7, and I change grouphead gaskets anywhere from 3 months, to 6 months.
