Oxygen Not Included: Early Game Thermo-Regulator Usage Guide
Explains how to install and control the temperature of the Thermo-Aquatuner in the early game, and provides common mistakes and precautions. It presents how to build an automatic control system using a liquid pipe temperature sensor and how to increase cooling efficiency.
1. 🔥🌡️ Early Game Thermo-Aquatuner Installation Necessity and Location Selection
- ✅ It's a good idea to install a Thermo-Aquatuner right away when your early ranch is about to die, without waiting for plastic.
- ✅ Utilize polluted water pockets in hot areas. Install a ladder in a 37-degree polluted water pocket.

2. ⚙️ Thermo-Aquatuner Installation and Pipe Connection Method
- ✅ When using a Thermo-Aquatuner in a large polluted water tank for temperature control, the material doesn't matter.
- ✅ Use the existing farm's pipes as is, or connect the pipes using the single-draw method.
- ✅ Use insulated liquid pipes when connecting pipes from hot to cold areas.

3. ⚠️ Thermo-Aquatuner Infinite Operation Problems and Solutions
- ⚠️ If you can't turn off the Thermo-Aquatuner, it will continue to operate and the pipes may freeze.
- ✅ If the liquid in the pipe drops below the freezing point, the pipe will break.
- ✅ Use a liquid pipe temperature sensor to force the Thermo-Aquatuner to turn off when the target temperature is reached.

4. Sensor-Based Automatic Temperature Control System Construction
- ✅ The liquid pipe temperature sensor checks the temperature of the liquid in the pipe and sends an automation signal.
- ✅ Set it to activate the Thermo-Aquatuner when the target temperature is exceeded, and stop when it falls below the target temperature.
- ✅ Install a bypass pipe so that the coolant circulates instead of stopping.

5. 🔄 Cooling System Application and Farm Temperature Maintenance Strategies
- ✅ Set the temperature range for the cooling zone and control the coolant via the pipe temperature sensor.
- ✅ Fix the farm temperature at 20-25 degrees and cool it steadily.
- ✅ The Thermo-Aquatuner increases cooling efficiency by using the specific heat of the liquid.

6. 💡 Efficient Thermo-Aquatuner Usage and Precautions
- ✅ Uptime is more important than power consumption. In the early stages, the heat generation facility is not large, so the uptime is low.
- ⚠️ The Thermo-Aquatuner is a facility that lowers the temperature of the coolant, so it raises the temperature of the surrounding polluted water.
- ✅ Install a steam turbine to manage the heat before the polluted water boils over.

7. 🚫 Inefficiency of Direct Tank Cooling and Effective Cooling Methods
- 🚫 Cooling the tank directly is inefficient.
- ✅ It is more efficient to cool only the gas.
- ✅ Cooling gas with liquid is the basic principle.
- ✅ Use the Thermo-Aquatuner immediately when you are in a hurry.
