I have mine in the GH's. I get about 12 degrees in my biggest one,
about 20 in a 72 x 30, and 30 plus in a 50 x 30. Even 12 degrees is a plus,
that saves a bunch of natural gas for me. I only have them in production GH's that I fire up early, I heat water with them, and they are back up in case a heater goes down.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the beneficials, though. I have aphids and whiteflies so badly that they are never going away. Controlling them is more realistic than getting rid of them.
