Temperature Fluctuations in Incubator

We are incubating at 89.4, but sometimes during the night, it gets so cold that our incubator cannot keep up, and it drops to 88.3 at the lowest. Is this change an issue that we need to fix? Not sure how sensitive the eggs are to temperature change and have heard about deformities caused by fluctuating temperatures.

I'm not sure how much of an effect it will have, but is there not a smaller room in your house where the temp fluctuations are smaller? Or nearer to a radiator/space heater just to help it get to where it needs to be?

Our heater just broke, making this an issue until it'll be fixed. There's no where else to put it.

That kind of fluctuation is nothing your eggs will be fine they are more resilient than what people think.
