I set the AC at 78-80 degrees, but with the humidistat on, it takes over and monitors the humidity in the home. The humidistat disables the thermostat. The temperature in the house can go over 85 degrees but as long as the humidity levels are in check, you minimize the chances of mold.

I had Munn's install the humidistat. It was a couple of years ago and the price was around $150. You can see a payback to your investment within a year in the savings on your electric bill by not having the AC running to cool an empty house.
