The thermostat has up to five dehumidification modes.
Operation
Stand Alone Dehumidifier
Dehumidifier operates independently or the
HVAC system.
Available in all modes except off.
Coil Dehumidification
A duct temperature sensor is required. A DX or
chilled water coil is operated to maintain a dis-
charge air temperature of 45°F (7°C). The room
air temperature is allowed to fall up to 3°F (1.5°C)
below the cooling setpoint while coil dehumidifi-
cation is operating, at which point dehumidifica-
tion is shut off. The fan relay (G) is not turned
on, rather the ACC or Y2 relay provides a signal
to the air handler unit to operate the fan at low
speed.
Available only when cooling.
HRV Dehumidification
(only available with single stage heat pumps
or air conditioners)
The HRV is operated based upon indoor dew
point and outdoor air temperature. The HRV op-
erates when the indoor dew point is 5.5°F (3.0°C)
above the outdoor temperature. The HRV is shut
off when the indoor dew point falls to 2°F (1.0°C)
above the outdoor temperature.
Available in all modes except off.
Stand Alone + HRV Dehumidification
(only available with single stage heat pumps
or air conditioners)
During cooling mode, a stand alone dehumidifier
is operated in the same manner as DHM1.
During heating mode, an HRV provides dehu-
midification in the same manner as DHM3.
Available in all modes except off.
Coil + HRV Dehumidification
(only available with single stage heat pumps
or air conditioners)
During cooling mode, a coil dehumidifier is oper-
ated in the same manner as DHM2.
During heating mode, an HRV provides dehu-
midification in the same manner as DHM3.
Available in all modes except off.
