Hot weather on the way.
Need Thermostat to control cooling fans?
Here is a great one I found and have been using for last couple of years.
Keep it in sump and kicks on cooling fans as needed in both sump and up in canopy.
Completely waterproof...however need to put some silicone, duct seal, or other sealent right where temp coil enters body. Mine corroded out right at that point and had to order another.
Very reasonably priced for such a great little machine.
