I spoke to Chuck this AM and was told this is how he wires them per Trane. He says the Trane air handler is extremely efficient and should run when the temperature in the room exceeds the thermostat regardless of the humidity level.

I know Munn's does not install a dehumidistats this way. I know this as my Dad's air handler will not come on until the temperature is high AND the humidity is high.

I guess I have a little research to do.....
Ours is wired as Munn's recommends (temp AND humidity must exceed levels set for AC to turn on) ... does anyone know why you would want the air handler to run by itself without AC?
