Trust me, if I had a role in it...it would only get below 60F for two weeks each year...and that would be Christmas to New Years for a snowy Christmas; I'd mandate 25-28F for the white stuff to stick around. The rest of the year it couldn't get below 60F or over 90F. I assumed the original poster was asking about pump WVO at the collection point...some where electrical heaters may not have a long enough cord to reach the 120VAC outlet; thus the use of a 12VDC pump.
