Don't make this project a bigger deal than it needs to be. As long as
the repeater is a few degrees above the ambient temperature (even assuming
100 % humidity at ambient) then it will be OK. The standby power the
repeater uses will probably be enough to maintain this temperature
difference. Just don't turn the repeater off.
For cooling put your fans on a thermostat set several degrees warmer
than it will ever be in the water tower. Just remember that you need to keep
the repeater warmer than its surroundings to keep water from condensing in
it.
