Thermostat - Plug in Thermo Guard Digital Control TH-928T Greenhouse Shed Garage

Product Information

Sometimes, all you need is a basic, water-resistant thermometer like this Brannan Digital Max Min Greenhouse Thermometer . It doesn’t overcomplicate things, simply displaying the current temperature, as well as the maximum and minimum. Butane and propane greenhouse heaters are useful for supplying heat for a few hours, but it is unlikely that a small gas canister will last the whole night. Electric Fan Heaters In the middle, the largest numbers show the current temperature. Then, above and below, the maximum and minimum temperatures are displayed as well. These can be measured over any period of time, as they are reset manually. I recommend a digital thermometer over a traditional analogue model . The displays are clearer and easier to read and interpret. You may wish to look for a thermometer that doubles up as a hygrometer (measuring humidity as well as temperature). These give a broader overview of growing conditions. The Inkbird wins here. Even though it doesn’t have the longest sensor length, the dual-screen makes the product more user-friendly.

Good design features give the product better functionality and more durability. We’ll be comparing the probe length, the screen design, and any other design feature that helps contribute to the product’s quality. The WILLHI This product has a cooling and heating option, so if you happen to have a heater in your greenhouse, you can plug it in and keep the temperature within a specific range of degrees for your crops! Specs Electric fan heaters work well in all sizes of greenhouse. Look for a fan heater with adjustable heat settings and/or a built-in thermostat . These offer more control over the temperature and electricity usage. Plus knowledge of how hot it gets inside your greenhouse at different times of the year and the investment in a really good thermometer. Plus your plans for what to grow when. Are you going to be starting your seeds in early spring? Are you going to be overwintering your plants? Are you growing orchids and other exotic hothouse plants? Please spend time on these considerations as they really determine the type and size of the heater that’s best for your growth plans. Power Source According to the manufacturers, it’s accurate to ±1°C, and reports from customers seem to support this claim. Whilst not precise enough for professional use, it should give a good overall impression of the temperature and humidity inside the greenhouse.Digital displays are easy to immediately interpret, and they are clear and easy to read. Thanks to the nature of the digital instrument, it’s easy to buy a digital thermometer that displays a variety of data, not just the current temperature. There are digital greenhouse thermometers that will display the maximum and minimum temperatures over a period of time, as well as the humidity. Win: The Hausen Electric Tubular Heater for Greenhouse offers a reliable heating capacity suitable for small to medium-sized greenhouses. It provides sufficient heat to maintain optimal growing conditions for plants, ensuring they thrive in a controlled environment.

Some electric fans are freestanding and others can be mounted on the wall to keep them out of the way. Of course, as with any electric appliance, you can hook a timer up to your electric heater, if you have a schedule on which you heat your greenhouse, in the evening for example. Propane In addition to max/min temperature readings, there are also more advanced digital thermometers that will also display the maximum and minimum humidity readings over a certain time period. Again, this can be useful to keep an eye on for certain types of plant. Different Levels of Weatherproofing You could also consider investing in greenhouse blinds, as they protect your greenhouse from direct sunlight on particularly warm days. Pairing blinds with adequate vents and louvres is a great way to cool your greenhouse down effectively throughout the summer with minimal effort. The Dimplex Tubular Heater with Thermostat offers several advantages. It provides a robust heating capacity, suitable for small to medium-sized spaces. The advanced heating technology ensures even heat distribution and optimized performance. The built-in thermostat allows for precise temperature control, maintaining a comfortable environment. With its energy-efficient design, the heater minimizes energy wastage and reduces operating costs.NB: When watering in the morning, try to do so before the sun is directly on the greenhouse, so your plants have time to take up water. Otherwise the water may evaporate faster than the plants can absorb it! It will also depend on what kind of plants you want to grow, as different plants will favour more or less ventilation. Tropical plants, for example, will enjoy high humidity, while alpines enjoy a good stiff breeze. Win: This tubular heater is designed to withstand the unique environmental conditions present in greenhouses. It is constructed using durable materials that can endure the humidity and fluctuating temperatures commonly found in these environments. The heater's weather resistance ensures long-lasting performance, even in demanding greenhouse settings. Our greenhouse thermostat collection comes from leading brands such as J&D Manufacturing, Dramm, BioGreen and Emerson. All cables, temperature probes and other hardware are included for installation, and we have weatherproof thermostats for greenhouses that use sprinklers and misters. You'll find thermostats that work with 12-volt or 24-volt wiring. It’s equally important to keep an eye on your greenhouse when the temperature drops too, as frost can creep into your greenhouse during the winter months and wreak havoc on your crops. That’s where our great range of greenhouse heaters come in useful, keeping your plants at a comfortable temperature all year round.

Win: This tubular heater utilizes effective heating technology, specifically designed for greenhouse applications. The tubular design allows for even heat distribution, preventing temperature variations and ensuring consistent warmth throughout the greenhouse. A weatherproof ‘IP’ rating can also be helpful to look out for . Given that greenhouse thermometers will be used in damp conditions, an IP rating of IPX5 can ensure there’s no water ingress. Without an IP rating it’s hard to know exactly how watertight something is. Most greenhouse heaters are designed to be as energy-efficient as possible. By nature, electric greenhouse heaters are known to be extremely energy efficient; however, this doesn’t necessarily mean they’re the cheapest to run. Even though the unit is compact, it still clearly displays humidity and temperature readings. On top of showing the current data, it also shows ‘low’ and ‘high’ readings from the last 24 hours, and indicates whether the humidity is considered ‘dry’, ‘comfortable’ or ‘wet’.

Win: This tubular heater is built to withstand demanding conditions. It is constructed with durable materials that can endure regular usage and resist wear and tear. Additionally, the Dimplex Tubular Heater is designed to be weather-resistant, allowing for safe and reliable operation even in damp or outdoor environments. Electric heater with a top-of-the-line features for delicate and fine control of the greenhouse temperature. Whilst spacing plants appropriately will help air circulation, you’ll need more than just that to lower the condensation levels in your greenhouse. Maintaining greenhouse air flow with adequate ventilation is key for all greenhouses, so if you have a real issue with condensation, consider investing in additional vents or louvres to increase the overall air circulation. A combination of both these vents and louvres is ideal, as it creates circulation through convection from the bottom (louvres) up to the roof (vents). Within 30 minutes to an hour of opening vents in your greenhouse, you should see that all condensation has cleared.
