Default Should I Use A Dehumidistat In The Summer?


Bubba already answered that question.

I just moved into a house in Florida this past Spring which has a
thermostat and a separate dehumidistat. The dehumidistat apparently
controls the air conditioner separately from the thermostat. Even if the
thermostat is off, the dehumidistat will kick on the A/C if it is set
below the actual humidity level in the house.

Should I use both of them in conjunction with one another during the
summer? If not, I'm wondering why the dehumidistat was even installed
since there is not a dehumidifier in the house.

Thanks in advance!


yes
The A/C *IS* the dehumidifier


Why would I need a separate dehumidistat, though?
