In Manual Mode, it is important to anticipate drops and
react to increases in outdoor temperature to maintain
as much humidity as possible while avoiding window
condensation

humidity setting Changes may be necessary several
times per day throughout the heating season

DEHUMIDIFIER CONTROL (IF INSTALLED)
The thermostat can be configured, through the installer
set-up, to control dehumidification with either a whole
home dehumidifier or with the air conditioner (cooling unit).
The thermostat will allow you to set the desired humidity
(% relative humidity) level in your home and can be used to
turn the dehumidification On or Off
1. Use the dehumidification adjustment to set the
dehumidification setpoint to 60% when first installed. Allow
dehumidification to run until the initial setpoint is reached,
before deciding if you want to change the humidity setting
Raise the setting if you prefer the air to be less dry; this will reduce the amount of time that
dehumidification runs.
Lower the setting if you prefer the air to be more dry; this will increase the amount of time
that dehumidification runs.
Your comfort is the best measure of how to adjust your setting. When first installed, your
dehumidifier has to remove all the moisture that is initially in your home. The home acts like
a sponge so the moisture in the materials of your home is at the same level as the air After
drying the air, the materials of the home will release the moisture back into the air until they are
again at the same level. As a result, it is not uncommon for dehumidification to operate for an
extended period of time when it is first installed.
