Default circuitry problem

Helo guys

I need a circuit whereby temperature is sensed, and if below a certain value, a heating element makes the temperature rise. And when the temperature reaches that certain value, a motor starts turning.

Any ideas?? =_= are there any precautions to take??

Are the two values that you mention exactly the same or are they different?

How about a household AC thermostat.

If you want it simple, google for some PTC sensors and op-amps (LM358 f.i.) in comparator mode. the temperature sensor changes it's resistance for changes of temperature. Start playing with op-amps in comparator mode. That's really simple stuff.

Have you got a temperature sensor in mind?

What temperature to turn on the heater?

What temperature to turn on the motor?
