When I had an inspection done on my house before the Warrenty expired the engineer who did it advised me to get a humidistat. He informed me that the humidistat will control the humidity in my house while I am gone for the summer. He said what damages a house down here is not the heat but the humidity. He said that carpets that get wrinkled is because of high humidity.I had Sun Kool install one and I set it at 55% and the AC at 82 and after 10 years have never had a problem plus there is a savings on electricity because AC doesn’t run as often. I bought a humidity gage so my house watch people can check humidity to ensure the humidity is 55 or lower. After 10 years never had a problem with mold or wrinkled carpets. It’s the way to go if you leave your house for a long period.
