English term or phrase: sensor well
Check all sensors at each air handler for proper location. Sensors in loose-fitting sensor wells require generous thermal compound.

I've found Canadian government page translating it as « puits » -- but I'm really skeptical! I'm thinking this is more like a "housing" ... what do you think?
