Thank you, that is interesting. Make sense to this layman. As I understand it unless the air handler can take humidity out of the air, this is NOT the way it should be wired and is likely why I saw no savings last year using a de-humidistat as my air handler never shut off.

Does what I just typed make technical sense?
