DIY Thermostat Controlled Outlets!

View attachment 131209
Ok for all you that dont know how to make Thermostat controlled outlets heres the way.these are very handy to plug your exhaust fans into.
How it works is you plug them in set the temp,and when the heat reachs the temp u pick your fans will kick on,and vent till it drops 7 or 8 degrees.

Parts list is:One Master flow thermostat from home depot
Extention cord 14/2 style
One Housing box,and cover
One outlet with green ground screw attached
And my ol trusty tin snips for cutting everything

Cut the male end of cord to the desired length you need for you project.then cut a second piece also any length you need from same end you cut your first piece from.Strip the ends of your wire as shown.

Next remove cover from thermostat box

Take the cable with out the male end on,and slide it through the bottom of the thermo housing.there is a connector already in the bottom use it to secure the wire firm.

Attach the wires to the existing wires in the housing.green to the green screw on the housing itself,and the other ones to the seperate wires in the housing as shown.i left the wire nuts off to show what i mean,but by all means use them to make a good connection!

Put the cover back on the thermostat and set this piece aside.it should look like this.

Take the cord with the male end on,and slide it through the bottom of the outlet box.then do the same with the exposed end coming from the thermostat.

Heres where it gets a lil tricky!to wire the outlet up take both green wires,and attach them to the green ground screw on the outlet itself.Next take the black wire coming from the cord with the male end on,and attach it to the white wire coming from the cord from thermostat.twist them together,and secure with a wire nut.
Now you should have two wires left.one white,and one black.take the white wire,and attach it to the silver side of the outlet,and attach the black with to the brass side.this way produces polarity at all connections.

Install the outlet into the housing box,and apply cover.

All thats left to do is plug it up adjust your temp,and let your fans do the rest.
Using these will cut down on fans running when not needed,and help cut down on noise,and power
