Humidity Detecting Switch

I've seen $250 humidity detecting fans (Broan?). I have a timer on my bathfans, and motion detectors on my hallway lights (installed when my dad wasdying), so I can't believe they can't make a wall switch which detectshumidity. ANyone see one? Couldn't find one with google. Besides thebathrooms, I'd wonder if I can't have one for the house when I'm away anddon't want to have the heat or cool on just to prevent mildew. I hadn't usedcooling in years and the upstairs duct perspired onto my ceiling. - = - Vasos Panagiotopoulos, Columbia'81+, Reagan, Mozart, Pindus, BioStrategist ---{Nothing herein constitutes advice.

In my opinion you are all wet, at temperature you have outline Humidistat would be useless unless you have Dehumidifier run at all times, and at 57 Deg. F not likely that you will get below 50% rh so all you doing is wasting your time but lots luck.

I posted a link to one with a relay that sells for $40. Why won't that do?

snip.

I have seen a humidty switch with a central AC theromstat. It was in an older home. I am not sure if they still offer them. It was either Broan or Honeywell.
