    If i was looking to measure room temperatures where is the best place for the sensor to be? I would assume floating in the middle of the room would be the best option but i don't think my wife would agree.

    If it was mounted on the ceiling could i assume that the actual temperature was some offset of the measured temperature that i could measure once and account for?

    Room stats in a domestic installation are normally mounted 1.5m above finished floor level, away from direct sunlight and not over a radiator.
