Default sump heater

I have a reefkeeper which controls my heat with a 500w titanium heater. The heater is set in the skimmer compartment of my sump. I have a bypass style refugium. I took the temp sensor and set it in each compartment of the sump and also in the main tank. It showed a temperature difference of 0.1 degrees so I'm thinking nothing to worry about.
