I'm wiring the greenhouse exhaust fans to run on cycle timers. I'd like them to run briefly every hour during the winter to clear humidity but not bring in the frigid weather. I would also like the circulation fans to cut off during this time. Doing this on 220 would save me some valuable amps, as I only have about 20 available to this greenhouse and the fans max me out on 110.
So the dilemma is twofold. One is finding 220v cycle timers. The other is finding one that can run for the better part of an hour and then turn off for only a few minutes (opposite of what most cycle timers provide). Or if anybody is an electrician, if they could tell me if its possible to just take a cycle timer and just swap some wire around inside so it runs when its supposed to be off and off when its supposed to be on
