Default Re: "THE VAULT" - Temp Cntrl - Heat & Cool???

Here's the plan for now...

  • A two stage temp controller (Ranco)
  • two heating pads ("Brewer's Edge Space Heater")
  • 17 cu.ft. manual frost freezer
  • RH will be managed with beads
  • Active humidification (only if necessary)
  • Fans will be directed on the evaporator coils (which run through the shelves). This 'fan trick' is successfully used on smaller non-thermoelectrics
The two stage controller will come in handy during the fall and spring, otherwise it will be full bore heat in the winter and cool in the summer.

At the moment I am wondering how to feed the wiring in and out of the freezer.

The only reason I am thinking of this is because the garage is the only place that has not been invaded yet.

It's still on the drawing board.
