their job consistently, I hoped the furnace thermostat could be set to come
on only when the air temperature around our least accessible water pipes
and fresh water tank was in the mid 30s.

What a neat idea!! Why didn't I think of it? I installed my
indoor/outdoor probe on the refrigerator vent door, on the inside. Your
idea is so good that I may just get another one to monitor the pipes.
Temperatures here in Atlanta are in the teens at night, up to near freezing
in the daytime...sunny south. ;-). But, my trailer is "winterized" and up
in north GA, where temperatures have been even lower for the past month.
Thanks for the idea.
