An electronic humidistat works by measuring capacitance of an air gap capacitor.

In this type of sensor, as air flows in between two electrodes, the capacitance between two plates will change according to the RH contained in air.

Does air conditioning reduce humidity?

Yes Air Conditioning Reduces Humidity. If you have a space AC unit, you will see that there is a containing at the bottom that needs to be emptied when full of water. That water is taken from the air. Causing a dehumidifying effect.


Why does your central air conditioner not blow cold air if you checked the unit outside and its running Also checked the breakers The force of air coming through vents isn't strong and the air is warm?

There are many reasons why it does not work: it may have lost all its refrigerant because of a leak in the system; its compressor pump may have stopped working; etc... If you cannot see anything obviously "set wrong" on the controls of the ac unit, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) technician to advise you and/or fix it for you. For personal safety reasons only technicians who are licensed to work on HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) should do this kind of work because they have the right test equipment and tools and have been trained in how to do this work safely.

What is the purpose of a humidistat?

A humidistat is a device used to control the operation of space conditioning systems such as air conditioners, dehumidifiers and humidifiers. When used with an air conditioner, for example, the humidistat cycles the unit on and off based on humidity rather than temperature as provided with a regular thermostat. A humidistat set at 70 percent relative humidity, for instance, will cycle the air conditioner on when relative humidity reaches 70 percent or above, even if the thermostat setting does not call for cooling.
