Can this system be used in a greenhouse to increase the humidity in the winter? (Indiana)

I am sure it could be used. I use it as a cooling station on my canopy when we would do events during the dog days of summer. it worked real well. I would check with MfR to be sure

I recommend it. I also sue 2 of these AcuRite 00613A1 Indoor Humidity Monitor one inside and one outside. The light may be just what you need to raise the temperature in your baby's greenhouse. in a warm room I almost cooked my seedlings as the temp went up to 93f before I caught it but an a cooler room (68f) it kept the temp about 11 degrees warmer than the ambient temp in the room

Dear Anissa, Thank you for writing, and for your interest in our Palram Harmony Hobby Greenhouse. To be honest, we would not recommend resizing or retrofitting this product, due to the complexity of the design. There are many parts involved and other variables beyond our contol. You would be much better off buying a greenhouse sized small enough for the space you have. I hope this helps! Thanks for making Gardener's Supply your source for gardening products and information. Please let us know if we can help you with anything else. Sincerely, Darcy Customer Service

I would not recommend that. There is an inline control switch which may not handle the humidity well in a sauna or steam room.

Yes, absolutely. This is ideal for that purpose. We used it on two of our vegetable gardens in NC weather and had a lot of success.

Yes. You could be risking moisture on electrical components. Temperature controlled environment would be a better way to go.

the temp will be just a little warmer, but that is with sun light on the unit. They are not make to replace the glass greenhouse, just to help you get started a little sooner.

I don't know, we live in Florida, my husband says place a 4x4 vertically 2 feet into the ground inside the greenhouse, in the very center with a 2x4 on top on end with the crown up and attach it to the center tubing from front to back, this would give the roof additional strength. We placed space heaters inside, they did a good job, no snow though. You could also get nursery grade tarp and place it over the greenhouse, it will help keep the heat inside.

Absolutely not! I would NOT waste my money on this greenhouse, again! It did not last even a month it is a piece of junk.Seams started to rip within a month

Im not too sure, but my opinion would be that you can it just wouldn't be constant heat going to it since the hydrofarm is on/off and a proportional thermostat that keeps the temps constant would be your best choice to use

Yes I use it in a greenhouse 24/7 during the winter months October through April. It has safeguards. It is able to be set to a temp so that only the pilot remains on once it gets to the set temp unlike others which run constantly.

No, it can only regulate temps and humidity inside the house. There is no remote sensor that can be used with this unit.

I have no idea. It produced enough heat to dry out the room I keep my hibiscus in. I don't have a committed greenhouse though. It seems like it us sealed from moisture well. I'm sorry I don't have a better answer.

If you positioned it close to the seedlings, it should work. Hydrofarm also makes a germination station that works pretty well too. (Heating mat, plastic cells for seedlings, humidity hood)

I live in Texas so heating is not an issue. On cool nights here I use a lightbulb and this is enough to keep it warm. You should be able to figure something out. I Hang my bulb from a heat lamp by a metal clip from the center frame. I would not say this greenhouse is the most airtight thing out there.

It should work just fine. I've used one for the past two winters to measure just how long the furnace runs. I used one last summer to see how much the house AC ran. Mine sits on the vent. The key is to place the unit where it will measure the maximum temperate swings as the AC/heater cycles. Another unit sits in greenhouse and is placed away from the heater as I want to know the temperature that the plants are at. I can still tell when the heater is on - for the most part - but the temperature swings are small and hard to see precisely.

No, you cannot. You need to get the higer level model for that. According to manual, this unit has preset humidity level target for 60 percent.
