I have been a snowbird since 2006 and have come to the following conclusion about thermostat settings while we are gone for the summer. I do have a wifi thermostat (Honeywell) and use to monitor it daily while we are gone. I have found that is not necessary. The thermostat has a readout of humidity but does not have a means to control humidity. I would monitor the humidity and turn down the temperature periodically to lower it as needed. I found it is much easier to use the temperature programing to do that. I set the temperature in the house at 86 degrees for 23 hours and at 0500 in the morning it sets back to 75 degrees until 0600 when it then goes to 86. That keeps the humidity in the 50 to 60% range all day. Simple but effective. Electric bill in the $50 range all summer.
