I'm keeping my Temp controller in my garage.
My question is, Will the controller be OK AND operate properly if the temps in the garage get to and go lower than freezing? They will cause the part of the garage where my 2 fridges and a freezer are kept, is not insulated.
The info that came with the controller says this:
•Operating Temperature: 0 ~ 60 °C
•Storage Temperature: -30 ~ 75 °C
So since 0* C is freezing, I'm concerned that it wont work like it should?
If thats the case, I'm thinking I may have to cover it in some way. Like a towel or maybe put it in a clear container so the little heat it gives off when it's powered up will keep it warmer?
Anyone use the STC 1000 under these same conditions.?
If so, can you let me know if it will be fine, or do you do something like I said above?
Right now, here at the NJ shore, the temps are dipping LOW!
