[mention:2fe2c63b9c1b44eba25cdc436c6aca2f:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] Have you managed to do any follow-up testing during this week's heatwave ? It would be really interesting to see how well it performed.

This is a really nice project!

The concept it simple, but very useful. You described all the steps well, included all the pieces. I hope others will be able to make use of it.

I've done this the old-school manual way for many years: check temperature inside and outside, and open the windows when it's cooler outside, close them when it's hotter outside. [emoticon:752f32bcc91d4a448db162742a877a4a] But it depends on natural air movement, which isn't always available, and I don't trust the cats to stay safe... they tend to whack at insects on the window screens [emoticon:752f32bcc91d4a448db162742a877a4a]

I might have to add this idea to my list of winter projects. I might have to add a smoke sensor to the outside sensor though [emoticon:7001ca6adc474a82b3fba88f98f15573]
