A humidistat turns on your AC when the humidity reaches the setting you program.
It saves money because you don't need AC just because it is hot. Only when you want to take humidity (water) out of the air because it is the humidity that will cause mold and mildew damage.
Running AC on a hot dry day when the home is empty, wastes money.
