Im wondering if they make a thermostat that will go down to 34 degrees or lower. I want to put in my garage to try to help save on the heating bills a little. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance...

The lowest I am aware of is a Honeywell T87F-2782. It's range is 35º-65º.

I was hoping for somthing with a wider range. I need it to go up to atleast 75 degrees for painting reasons. Ive seen some from 40- 90 I think i will go with that. Thanks for the help!!!

If you have anything in there which will freeze, even at 40º you are cutting it close. You might want to consider some type of low temp alarm.

Anything that can freeze is stored inside the house I just want it so the snow will melt off the snow removal equipment. And have the ability to get it warm enough for painting as I restore antique tractors.
