DIY Beehive Heater -- Part 4 of 4 How to build a climate control system for your beehive.
Beehive Heater Part 4- Wrap up. How to set up an Inkbird controller and stack your heaters on your beehive. Wrap up of the "How to build a beehive heater" series. Not only does this system heat, but it cools as well. The goal of this system was to build a system that works with standard or flow hives and keeps the bees cool in the summer and warm in the winter and it works. If you want to build a beehive heater that works and is easy to build this is the heater for you. Simple design and all off the shelf parts which were ordered from Amazon. Nothing complex here. Just a working beehive heater with step by step how-to instructions so you can build your own. Your bees will love it.
Here is the list of items you will need. They will also be listed in the comment section. If you build, like and use this hive please give a shout out to the Bug Farmer if you have a channel. Also, please like, subscribe, and ring the bell. :-).
This video contains an in-depth description and step-by-step instructions on how to set up and configure an Inkbird thermostat controller. You will find a detailed explanation on how to wire the Inkbird in both heating and cooling modes as well as a easy to understand wiring diagram. I hope this video clears up any confusion you have about wiring the Inkbird controllers and helps you to successfully complete you internal beehive heater build.
 Below is what you will need to build the climate control system. The list does not include links to miscellaneous needed items like wire, glue, staples, plywood, hardware cloth etc., stain, paint, sandpaper, varnish, etc.
