Abstract
A steam condenser with temperature regulating apparatus including an exposed surface of the condenser defining an upper portion and a lower portion for allowing outside air to come into contact with the condenser. A heating control mechanism is connected to the condenser at the upper portion of the exposed surface and utilizes articulated electrically heated blanket or electrically heated panels in order to provide a freeze-proof environment and efficient operation of the steam condenser.
