Default

the BTU rating is at a specific temperature, the lower the temp - the lower the rating

Titan151
if you wish to control the temp, when you run the compressor flat out you need to cycle a heater against it
this is how lab chillers and environmental chambers are normally setup
(I have Haake and Formn Scientific units built this way)

you won't hurt anything running it 24/7, wear out sooner is all
yes, large deltaTs are the norm
