Fogco DC Thermostat Kit: Smart, Automated Control for Your Solar Ventilation System
Unlock the full potential of your solar-powered ventilation with the Fogco DC Thermostat Kit. Designed for simplicity and efficiency, this essential accessory allows you to automate the operation of your Fogco DC Snap-Fan, ensuring it runs only when needed. Perfect for DIY homeowners, agricultural professionals, and off-grid enthusiasts, this thermostat kit helps you maintain ideal temperatures in your greenhouse, attic, barn, or workshop while maximizing energy savings.
Set It and Forget It: Automated Temperature Management
Take the guesswork out of managing your environment. The Fogco DC Thermostat Kit allows you to set a desired temperature, and the system does the rest. When the ambient temperature rises above your set point, the thermostat activates your DC fan, providing crucial airflow and cooling. Once the temperature drops to the optimal level, it automatically powers the fan down. This simple yet effective automation is a game-changer for applications where temperature regulation is key.
Key features include:
- Simple Mechanical Control: Easily set your desired temperature with a straightforward dial. The thermostat features a 4-degree Fahrenheit differential to prevent rapid on-and-off cycling.
- Manual On/Off Switch: The thermostat also functions as a convenient in-line on/off switch, giving you full manual control over your fan's operation whenever you need it.
Plug-and-Play Installation for Solar Direct Systems
Engineered for seamless integration, the DC Thermostat Kit is incredibly easy to install. It comes equipped with 10 feet of durable cable and industry-standard MC4 connectors, allowing you to place it directly in-line between your solar panel and your DC Snap-Fan. This plug-and-play design means no complicated wiring or electrical work is required, making it an ideal upgrade for DIY solar projects. It's the simplest way to add smart control to your solar ventilation system.
The Perfect Companion for Fogco DC Snap-Fans
This thermostat is specifically designed to work flawlessly with Fogco’s line of high-efficiency Brushless DC Snap-Fans, including the 12", 16", 20", 24", and 28" models.
Versatile Applications for Smart Cooling
The Fogco DC Thermostat Kit is an indispensable tool for a wide variety of environments:
- Greenhouses & High Tunnels: Protect plants from overheating by automatically activating exhaust fans when the sun is out but temperatures are high. On cool, sunny days, it keeps the fan off to retain warmth. [2]

- Barns & Agricultural Buildings: Maintain comfortable temperatures for livestock or stored goods without wasting energy.
- Off-Grid Cabins & Tiny Homes: Automate your ventilation for improved air quality and comfort, conserving power for other essential uses.
- Sheds, Garages & Workshops: Keep your workspace cool and comfortable automatically, so it's ready for you whenever you need it.
