A humidastat works with a cooling unit or humidify. It measures the amount of humidity in the air. This can then trigger the unit to turn on or off removing excess humidity from the home.
If a room has a high rate of humidity it will show condensation on the windows or walls, it may even be growing some mold on the walls. But if you have any doubt,get a dehumidifier or at least a humidistat to see
How do they measure what?

Meters measure length, liters measure capacity, and kilograms measure weight.
False. Kilograms measure mass. Liters measure volume.
A humidistat senses humidity, thermostat temperature.
The difference is the relay operation.Normally opened or normally closed.If you add an external spdt relay,you could have a humidistat/dehumidistat.
With a temp/rh probe barring that take a humidistat and turn dial when it clicks from closing circuit note the setting and that is humidity surrounding humidistat
Not sure how it works, but it seems that you need to raise the humidistat to make the heat go on. Just raising the thermostat doesn't turn on the heater. Type your answer here...
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.
I bought mine from a shop reptile shop but you can get them off of the internet
My dehumidistat says to set the temperature to 70 degrees.

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.
System could have a humidistat installed...
No you don't need the humidstat on as this defeats the purpose of the AC doing its work.
A humidistat. (Yes, you can buy them in stores ... try home improvement centers, pet store or gardening centers.)
