If you have a humidistat that turns ON the AC when a certain certain humidity level is exceeded regardless of your preset temperature then that would be of value.

Ours was wired so that the AC wouldn't come on until the preset humidity level was exceeded. That resulted in the inside temperature climbing well into the 90's (and beyond) resulting in slow deterioration of just about everything.
