Description

The Autopilot Cooling Thermostat is a reliable and efficient solution designed to regulate temperatures within indoor gardening and cultivation spaces. This thermostat is an essential component for maintaining optimal conditions, safeguarding plant health, and ensuring the success of various crops. Here's an overview of the key features and benefits:

Key Features:

Temperature Control: The primary function of the Autopilot Cooling Thermostat is to control and maintain the desired temperature range in a grow room or cultivation area. It is particularly useful in managing heat generated by lighting systems, climate control equipment, and other environmental factors.
User-Set Temperature Range: Growers have the flexibility to set specific temperature ranges according to the requirements of their plants. This customizable feature ensures that the conditions are precisely tailored to the needs of different crops and growth stages.
Digital Display: The thermostat typically features a digital display that provides real-time information about the current temperature, set points, and operational status. This user-friendly interface simplifies monitoring and control.
Adjustable Differential: The thermostat often includes an adjustable differential setting. This allows growers to define the acceptable range within which the temperature can fluctuate before the cooling system is activated or deactivated. Fine-tuning the differential ensures precise control.
Versatile Compatibility: The Autopilot Cooling Thermostat is compatible with a variety of cooling devices such as exhaust fans, air conditioners, or other cooling systems commonly used in indoor gardening setups.
Plug-and-Play Installation: The thermostat is designed for easy installation and setup. It usually comes with user-friendly instructions, making it accessible for growers with varying levels of experience.
Remote Sensor Compatibility: Some models may support remote temperature sensors. This allows users to monitor temperatures in different areas of a large cultivation space, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the environmental conditions.
Alarm Notifications: Certain thermostats feature programmable high and low-temperature alarms. These alarms serve as alerts when temperatures deviate from the specified range, allowing growers to take prompt corrective actions.
Safety Features: The thermostat may include safety features such as a failsafe mechanism or automatic shut-off to prevent overheating and protect both plants and equipment.
Energy Efficiency: By automating temperature control, the Autopilot Cooling Thermostat contributes to energy efficiency. It ensures that cooling systems operate only when necessary, reducing overall energy consumption.
Compatibility with Grow Lights: Ideal for use in conjunction with grow lights to manage the heat generated during the lighting cycle. This is crucial for preventing excessive temperatures that can negatively impact plant growth.
Durable Construction: Built with durable components, the Autopilot Cooling Thermostat is designed to withstand the demands of indoor gardening environments for long-term reliability.

Usage Tips:

Calibration: Calibrate the thermostat periodically to maintain accurate temperature readings.
Differential Setting: Adjust the differential setting based on the desired level of temperature control. A smaller differential provides tighter control.
Placement of Remote Sensors: If using remote sensors, strategically place them to capture accurate temperature readings in various parts of the cultivation space.
Alarm Settings: Set high and low-temperature alarms to receive timely notifications of temperature deviations.
Routine Maintenance: Perform routine checks to ensure the thermostat and associated equipment are functioning optimally.

In summary, the Autopilot Cooling Thermostat is a crucial tool for growers seeking precise temperature management in indoor cultivation environments. Its features, including user-set temperature ranges, digital displays, and safety mechanisms, make it an invaluable asset for maintaining optimal growing conditions and promoting healthy plant development.

INFORMATION QUESTIONS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is Hydroponics?

Hydroponics is the science of growing plants without soil. The plants thrive on the nutrient-water solution alone. The growing medium merely acts as a support for the plants and their root systems while the solution passes freely. The growing medium, if any, is totally inert.

What types of plants grow best hydroponically?

Anything can be grown hydroponically, but some plants prove to be more space efficient. Some plants we suggest are tomatoes, sweet peppers, hot chilies, lettuce, spinach, squash, cucumbers, broccoli, beans, snow peas, herbs and flowers of all types.

Can you REALLY get better yields/quicker growth?

Absolutely. The plants, when receiving everything they need, tend to be healthier, faster growing and generally more productive. You can expect 30% faster growth with many crops.

What are the watering cycle timelines hydroponic systems?

Once the reservoir is filled with nutrients, it is time to put your hydro system to work! The ease of hydroponics is automation – automation is achieved by putting the pump on a timer according to your watering needs. The watering cycle depends on growth stage, growing medium and hydroponic system. In an ebb and flow or drip system with rockwool as the medium, seedlings, clones and plants in the early vegetative stage require watering only once a day for 15-30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Mature, flowering and fruiting plants require a heavier feed and can be fed once a day for 30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Typically soiless mixes and coco fiber can be watered for about 15 minutes twice a day, and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. ViaStone, Hydroton, Grow Rocks, and Silicate mediums need to be watered more frequently – a constant drip for drip systems, and about 15-30 minutes every 3 hours for ebb and flow systems and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. Aeroponic systems require frequent watering cycles; 30-60 seconds every few minutes or a constant spray.

What do I need to test pH? How do I test pH?

pH has a range from 0 (acidic) – 14 (alkaline), with 7 being neutral. A proper hydroponic pH range is between 5.5 to 6.2 for most hydroponic crops. For specific crop pH, check out our Plant Guide. pH must remain within the proper range for good plant health, disease resistance, and proper nutrient uptake. pH is maintained by adding pH Up and pH Down to the nutrient solution. For more information, see the Testssection of our site.

How will the flavor compare to my outdoor grown, organic produce?

The taste may be even better! This is simply due to the fact that the hydroponically grown plants are getting everything they need, when they need it. Don’t be fooled by “hot house” produce grown commercially. The grower’s primary concern is shipability and storage, not flavor. When you grow your own vegetables at home, you can expect nothing less than excellent results. Plus, hydroponically grown produce has the added benefit of a longer shelf life.
