Does it have a battery? Hmm. Do all the models like this one that
restart after power failures have batteries? Never thought of that but
will look into it.
I will be going away for extended periods so do not want the unit
to run all the time if it doesn't have to, which it might if the
humidistat doesn't work right.
I have noticed differences bewteen the wall unit and the
dehumidifier display but this is a mile off.

I have a 4-yr old LG dehumidifier 65 pts. This year when I went to use
it I noticed the "actual" reading was much too high. I know this
because I have another humidimeter on the wall and I know the air was
very dry.
So it seems the LG is not reading correctly. Since the humidity
set point looks at the actual for comparison (two side-by-side digital
displays) I fear this unit is cooked. (It does seem to run all the
time now.)
Am I probably right, or any ideas?
Thanks.

Does it use batteries perchance? just a wild guess. maybe a dirty sensor?

I have a Danby that is similar to capacity to yours and it's humidity
reading never matches the accurate ones. As long as it pulls water out
of the air when I ask it to, that's fine with me.

You won't get things accurate, so keep that in mind.
