Are you still doing data logging on the fans? If you notice that the fans are coming on earlier in the day when the temps are higher but shuts off several times, or if later in the day when the heat is more needed and it is now to cool to turn on the fans you might want to think about adding a timer. By adding a timer you can prevent the fans from turning on as soon as the temp is past the set point allowing it to gain more heat.

Also it looks like there is a decent size gap between the fan shroud and fan blades it might help to make the gap a little smaller so the fan it not pulling some of the air that has moved past the fan back through the fan.

One more note from looking at one of the older posts you mentioned about wanting to run this in reverse in the summer but thought that you would have to use vent tubing to do so. I thought of a very easy way to do it add a hole with a grommet large enough to run the power wires through the board, flip the board over it now is in reverse.
