Abstract
A stand-alone thermostat that mounts flush to a wall and obtains improved accuracy in ambient temperature measurement by actively intaking air from the room interior. An internal temperature measurement chamber communicates between air inlet and outlet. A heat generator located within the temperature measurement chamber causes thermal convection, the convection generating an air flow thus drawing ambient room air into the measurement chamber, across a temperature sensor, and out the outlet air opening. This feature assures that the temperature of room interior air is accurately measured.
