Can this unit control humidity? Those shelves angled?

not sure if it can, there is not a seperate humidity setting, just a temperature control , the sheles are at a very very slight angle, you can pull some out to fit fatter bottles

It does control humidity. The shelves are slightly "U" shaped to hold the bottles.Jim Wilkinson

The unit is rated to address moisture in a 1000 sq ft area. I would not expect it to function well past that point.It should work fine as long as you do not exceed operating parameters. This includes the size of the storage facility and air flow in said facility. If you use unit in an "drafty" area, you will negate function. But otherwise it should work well.

I don't know if the unit was designed to operate on its side. I doubt it because it needs to drain condensation moisture. Better ask the mfg this question.

When there is too much humidity in your room, you can use the unit to 'dry' the air - it works as a dehumidifier.

The sensor switch is a great feature. It turns the humidity fan off after 30 minutes. Any Decorator style plate (switch or outlet) will work. You can gang the sensor switch with a light fixture switch in a 2-gang work box if wanted. It doesn't need to be a stand alone

This is a humidistat not a thermostat it will activate based on humidity not temperature. This might not be what you are looking for.

No...but I bought, sorry, can't remember exactly what it was called, a unit with temp. and humidity. I have asthma so humidity levels are important to me. Couldn't have been too spendy, I'm also kind of cheap.

Yes, definitely! It holds humidity very well, and has a constantly running internal fan to help regulate temperature and humidity throughout the unit. We have many customers who use this item as a poultry hatcher and have great results. I hope this helps! Thanks, ReptiPro

I run mine in a 1200SqFt basement and it does a VG job keeping the humidity under control........Bonsai Matty

I think you need a larger model to keep it that dry. This is a nice little unit but for like a small closet or bathroom max and it doesn't have a meter that tells you the humidity level.

The only humidity control is a tray at the bottom of the unit that you put water in for humidity...no auto-fill.

Charles,The unit has been a little disappointing, but not enough to return it. The humidity it measures is about 15% off, so I just compensate for that. If you set it for 60%, the compressor and fan will run until it reaches 57%, which seemed a bit odd to me. The unit does not measure temp, as was advertised. The fan does shut off once it has overachieved on the desired setting.

No, it has a control switch that controls to different humidity levels, but the specific humidity levels are not marked at any of the points on the dial.

There has to be a slight tilt to help gravity with expelling the moisture but that is as far as I would recommend tilting this unit.

Yes you can just do what the schematic and it works on humidity and temperature

I agree, I have seen systems that have a computer and external sensor, to compare outside and crawl space humidity levels, to prevent the fan(s) from running if it is more humid outside.

I don't think so. The humidity is set at a fixed amount. I think this is more of a air purifier than a humidifier.
