It's running around 79 or 89. However it should be considered that that is the room temperature right now it is warm here in Michigan.

I would consider installing a small vent on the "cool" side, place it just above the substrate level, the fact you have a relatively large water container in that area means the humidity level should stay within range. If you find you`re losing too much heat or humidity you can easily close the vent off.
89f is too high if that`s the lowest ambient in the whole enclosure (I understand you saying the weather`s warm just now)..
Why are you using a mist machine if you have the pool?
