Any opinions or advice is appreciated, including who you would hire to install a humidistat. Thanks.
Had Munns install a Honeywell Vision IAQ pro (all one unit that replaces unit on wall). All we do is push the hold button when we leave and it monitors these two points - heat 87 & humidity 60% - when we get back after summer we just hit cancel to go back to reg settings;do not get the separate unit as many individuals have problems trying to work two units;our electric drops down to 1/3 & house is comfortable & we never have to worry about mold;have had it since Mar 2011 - going on 9 yrs and love it;not one service call since installing.
