Question for all the electricians out there..
We are building a new 30"x100" greenhouse this winter and I need some advice with the electrical.
It uses two 36" exhaust fans powered by 1/2HP electric motors. The motors are either 115 or 230V.
I would prefer to use them 230V to keep wire size and amperage down.

I was wondering if I could use the 115V thermostats to open the shutters, and also trip a relay to turn on the exhaust fans on a different 230V circuit.
I have seen relays like the one linked below for sale in catalogs, but I am not sure which one to choose. Also, how are they normally mounted? Do they fit in a normal junction box? I also see the sockets listed, do they fit in a juction box.
