Phil,
We all know in hot weather, batteries self-discharge faster. Therefore, if floating is so important, it is contra-indicated to stop floating them at such times. Instead of terminating float, float should be continued, but at a lower voltage. This IS temperature compensation; something I have failed to take seriously, in the past, but will be much more diligent to put into practice in the future.
Contrary-wise, in cold weather, batteries self-discharge slower, and therefore floating may not be as important. This is the time when discontinuing float may be indicated.
