    Product Description

    Reotemp Compost Thermometer - Heavy Duty 5/16" stainless steel stem 


    Please note: we also Stock Reotemp Super Duty 3/8" Fast Response Thermomoters

    The REOTEMP Heavy Duty Windrow Compost Thermometer is ideal for monitoring interior temperatures of large compost bins or compost windrows. The heavy duty construction means this thermometer will last for many years with normal use.

    The 91cm Heavy Duty probe with probe guard handle is our most popular temperature probe combo - trusted by Australian farmers from coast to coast.

    When making compost it is very important to know the compost's temperature. A high quality REOTEMP compost thermometer from Groundgrocer.com will enable you to monitor the core temperature of your compost pile accurately and easily.

    If the compost is too hot, it will destroy beneficial microorganisms that are essential to the proper conversion of your compost materials into humus. If the compost temperature is too cold microbial activity will be reduced and weed seeds and any pathogens are not destroyed. In such cases compost can take a very long time to mature. So be sure! Purchase high quality compost thermometer equipment and accessories all right here at Groundgrocer. We only supply the highest quality compost thermometer's available on the market.

    FEATURES:

    Stem:

    Selection of 61cm (24 inch), 91cm (36 inch), 122cm (48 inch), 153cm (60 inch) & 183cm (72 inch)  stainless stem lengths, 5/16" (7.9 mm) diameter stem, pointed tip.

    Accuracy:

    +/- 1% full scale. Temperature range is 0 to 100 degrees Celcius.

    Dial Size:

    3" (7.6 mm) diameter. The dial case is hermetically sealed, so it will not fog or allow moisture infiltration.

    Dial Face:

    Unbreakable plastic crystal.

    Workmanship:

    All welded stainless steel design. This product can be left in the compost pile and does not need to be stored inside. It can withstand the chemical and biological weathering of the compost pile over time.

    Quality Assurance:

    Reotemp is a ISO 9001 certified company.

     

    Important Note:
    More than 90% of our customers who buy a Heavy Duty Compost Themometer, opt for adding a Compost Thermometer Probe Handle with their purchase. The Probe Handle protects the dial face from accidental damage and is also used to push and pull the thermometer into and out of the compost pile.

      Reotemp Compost Thermometer

      Posted by RH on 26th Apr 2021

      New customer. So far so good. Very happy. This thermometer is sturdy enough to probe the insides of our compost stacks & haybales. Quick & efficient. Really like the design with the clear analog dial & that it's battery free. My only comment would be to be patient & leave it in there for a few minutes to let the dial fine-tune & settle on the exact temperature. Overall, a really helpful tool for tracking how bacteria & fungus is getting on deep inside our compost piles. (Before this I buried thermometers in compost piles, or used a temp probe on the end of a flexible wire. That was never any good.) This one's just so cool - kids say it looks like a sword.

      Nice thermometer

      Posted by Bob, WA on 3rd Jun 2014

      I've tried a few other thin stemmed brands (they always bend or break) and these reotemp thermometers are the best in Australia. I use a 91cm and I find it well built and sturdy. The probe handle is a must.

      Best long thermometers in Australia

      Posted by Bill (Central Queensland) on 3rd Jun 2014

      I can highly recommend these longer compost thermometers. I use three 153cm heavy duty models with the probe gaurd handles (essential I would say - to protect the dial) for my farm-based commercial windrow operation.
