York S1-RLTH-31831 Freeze Stat — Opens 37°F / Closes 49°F
The York S1-RLTH-31831 is an OEM freeze protection thermostat (freeze stat) engineered to safeguard HVAC coils, air handlers, and related equipment from freeze damage. By monitoring air or coil temperatures and triggering a protective response before freezing conditions occur, this control helps prevent costly equipment damage and system downtime.

How It Works
The freeze stat opens its contacts at 37°F, signaling the control system to shut down the unit or activate protective measures such as closing outdoor air dampers or energizing heating elements. Once temperatures recover to 49°F, the contacts close and normal operation resumes. This automatic open/close action provides reliable, hands-free freeze protection.
