A sensor insert for positioning a temperature sensor within a glycol bottle. The sensor insert may be transparent and in the general shape of a tube, and is adapted for insertion in a bottle having an upper opening and a bottom. The sensor insert can also comprise an insert body having a first end, a second end and an inner surface. The insert body may be tapered from the first end toward the second end, for easy insertion into the bottle. The sensor insert can hold a temperature sensor away from the bottom and sides of the bottle to enable more accurate temperature readings. The insert also allows fluid within the bottle to be in contact with the temperature sensor due to fluid openings in the insert body.
