[Shop-talk] thermostats

[Steven Trovato]

I agree.  The temperature at the thermostat is not the same as the 
temperature in the coldest corner of the room.  I wouldn't go with 
lower than 40F.  Even at that, you could still have problems, 
depending on the actual conditions and thermostat location.  You can 
also go with electric heat tape on pipes and a light bulb in a 
cabinet for chemicals.
