Probe Placement spin-off

[Craiga 01453]

Just to add another point for probe placement, all of my thermostats specifically state not to put the probe where liquid can get between the steel tip and the cable. For wet applications, you purchase a probe specifically for that type of application which is appropriately sealed or purchase a specialized casing for the probe based on manufacturer specs. I’m prone to reading all of the literature that comes with my equipment, so maybe others have not.

Another great point. But at this point, I think it's moot. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink...

Anyway, this thread has been derailed enough.

OP, I apologize. Best wishes moving forward...
