    No - nor does it measure temps - it simply controls the temp of the heat source, based on the temperature you plug in as the temperature to maintain.

    You still should get a digital thermometer to measure the temps inside the tubs as well as a hygrometer to measure the humidity.

    My Rancos are typically set about 10 degrees higher than than the temp I want to maintain INSIDE the tubs. You'll need to play around with it until you find your "sweet" spot - it's different for everyone depending on the ambient temps in your room.
