Just wondering if anyone else has had the problem of the display/screen of the new EKO controller getting clouded? It happened last year to me. It's still readable but it's not nice and crisp like it used to be, there is cloudy something between the layers of glass??
Any suggestions on how to fix?
Thanks,
Bob
 
I haven't had the with mine.
 
I haven't had that either.
 
So am I the only one with this "problem"? Like I said I can still read the numbers, but it's like something got between the layers of glass (I think there are two layers).
 
I would see if they will warranty it out.
 
I am not familure with the eko controller design, but have experienced random condensation between the glass in other controllers in enviornments that would appear stable. I was able to remove the cover clean the glass and drill a few small air breather holes to solve the issue.
 
Not sure I could make a claim under the warranty since it's been a couple years since I purchased.
I will try to open up the unit (and NOT break anything!) to see if there is condensation or not. Seems counterintuitive to think there could be any moisture there seeing that it sits directly above this nice warm boiler but I'm willing to check.
Thanks
