Mars Thermostat Guard Small Metal 5 5 M70215

The Mars M70215 is a small metal thermostat guard, enclosing a wall thermostat to prevent unauthorised adjustment or damage.

Thermostat guards address two distinct problems, and which one applies determines what sort of guard is appropriate.

The first is unauthorised adjustment. In shared or public spaces, occupants adjust thermostats to their own preference, and the resulting settings satisfy nobody while wasting energy. A locking guard prevents this while leaving the thermostat visible.

The second is physical damage. In schools, gymnasiums, corridors, warehouses, and industrial spaces, a wall thermostat is vulnerable to impact from equipment, sports, and general traffic. A metal guard protects it.

Metal construction suits the second requirement, where a plastic guard would itself be damaged.

An important consideration with any guard is airflow. A thermostat senses the air around it, and enclosing it restricts the air exchange with the room, which can cause the thermostat to read the temperature of a stagnant pocket rather than the space. Guards intended for the purpose are ventilated to permit airflow, and a solid enclosure should not be improvised.

Applications include schools, gymnasiums, commercial and public buildings, warehouses, and industrial facilities.
