The Heavy Duty Fast Response Windrow Thermometer is ideally suited for monitoring the core temperatures of large compost bins, heaps or windrows. The heavy duty construction means this thermometer will stand the test of time. It measures compost temperature 50% faster than the regular Heavy-duty probe.

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

The temperature reading will tell you when to add water to your compost, when to turn the pile and when it is mature and ready to use. Because heat is an essential element in the production of good quality compost, you want to ensure you have a very accurate compost thermometer to monitor the enitre production process.

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.

The Fast Response model will read temperatures of your heaps in around half the time of our Standard Heavy Duty model, taking around 15 seconds on average.
