I want to install a bathroom exaust fan in my HT equipment room to remove the buildup of heat. I have purchased the fan but now I need to find a thermostat to control the ON/OFF cycle automatically.

Someone here used an attic thermostat to automate this task but I have not been able to find one around where I live.

Is there any other solution to control automatically the ON/OFF cycle of the fan ?

Thanks in advance for the responses.

My HD carries them, but if you want to mail order one...

If you look hard enough via google you will find one south of $20.
search on Attic thermostat or Line voltage thermostat.

Here is a $25

Just be sure you get one that says for cooling. Not for heating.
