Default Motorgliders and TE Probes

Hi,

I have a question for motorglider owners. I sell variometers and TE probes
but I'm still learning. A customer is building a Europa motorglider and he
is wondering if he can mount a TE probe on the fin and connect it to the
variometer, or will the propwash cause problems. Is it necessary to use
some sort of pneumatic switch to switch between TE and static input for the
variometer?

His pitot and static ports are on a boom that is mounted to the wing.

Thank you,
