1. A portable climate controlled housing for sampling instrumentation comprising:
a) a sealable outer housing defining a cavity;
b) a sealable interior housing provided within the outer housing, the interior housing is insulated and adapted to receive gas sampling instrumentation;
c) a gas sampling hose having first and second ends, the sampling hose is connectable to a gas sampling instrumentation at its first end and the second end is in fluid communication with ambient air exterior of the outer housing;
d) a thermoelectric cooler device, the thermoelectric cooler device is disposed within the outer housing to cool the cavity of the outer housing;
e) at least one exhaust fan, the at least one exhaust fan adapted to remove air from the cavity of the outer housing;
f) a temperature probe, the temperature probe is disposed within the interior insulated housing; and
g) a thermostat, the thermostat is operably connected to the at least one exhaust fan, the thermoelectric cooler device and the temperature probe whereby when the interior temperature of the insulated housing is detected by the thermostat to be outside a preferred temperature range, the thermoelectric cooler device and the at least one exhaust are operated until the interior temperature of the insulated housing is within a preferred temperature range.
