You may find it necessary to install a fan or fans to help draw air out of the enclosure.



Thanks,

Hello Anthony
Before i put inside fan i thought to put over the roof a material  insulant with 4 clips for the winter to put out of the roof ,and i will see if yet at summer time i have problem i put one fan inside .The roof is the right place at photo,and over is material insulant.

Looking good!  With the louvers and the opening at the top it may work fine without a fan.  Should be sort of a chimney effect with heat exiting the top and pulling air into the bottom.  Probably best to keep your sensors as low toward the bottom as possible for accuracy.

Thank you again Mark ,i believe the same to work without fan ,but it want experiment the summer time to see if all is the correct.

Hello all
I finish complete the Stevenson Screen box ,for fan i do many test and i found the better way for correct temp ,i take a plastic tube inside will it is the sensor, and the top i put a fan iτ suck air from
sensor and gives above.

Because here to Greece yet,is not there are manny shops with solar
energy,only for big installations.
Ι use a AC/DC power 12V 1A and with remote switch on-off ,i open-
closed it manual with remote control !lol!!.

Here i have all the photos
