Default Re: Air Conditioner temp?

A humidistat measures/controls the humidity in the air. It is to humidity like a thermometer/thermostat is for temperature.

You can get the type that measure both indoor and outdoor. (using two separate sensors of course).

Price is anywhere from real cheap (just a few dollars) to as much as many hundred if you buy a complete weather station which also can measure rain and wind. I have one at my home in MA which measures outside temp, humidity, pressure both inside and outside and costs less than $70 (it is all digital and remote). I think i got it at Target.

A humidistat will be installed in the AC unit which will remove the humidity. With the meter mentioned above you can monitor the readings.
