Can this unit control the humidity/humidifier?

It appears it can, but in a way that wasn't obvious to me. There are some dry contacts which are presumably just on/off switches you could use to power a solenoid on a whole house humidifier. I'm maybe a mid-level DIYer with marginal knowledge of HVACS and wiring.The menus do have an allowance to control humidity.

Yes, and very well. Need to make sure your humidifier/ furnace have the right control module to connect to this thermostat.

As I have previouly stated, I had this unit professionly installed, however, I do know in my case, mine doesn't control my humidifier as I had a high end unit installed. The man gave me a detailed instruction and a users manual on the unit. The secret is ask around for a reliable, responsive professional. Gary

You need to purchase the Prestige iAQ comfort system for the humidity control. The Honeywell model we bought does not do this. Thanks

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

Yes. It has an on/off button behind the humidifier above the USB-cable connection.

Can this unit be used in a bathroom which includes a shower (and thus a certain amount of humidity)?

It appears to only to function when the heat is running. The unit has a mechanical by pass valvue (you have to close for the cooling season), but to be sure you can call them direct to check it out. Logically though, the Air conditioner wants to lower the humidity not raise it.

Yes, this unit measures both humidity and temperature. I use it to cure capicola and it monitors both and regulates the power to the freezer and humidifier.

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.

Yes. that is what I bought it for and I have tested it with appliances. I had a problem with the first unit in that the humidity sensor was 8% off compared to two other humidity sensors I had. They shipped a new one to replace at no expense or even having to ship the defective unit back.

Yes you can. You set the LS value to 40 and the HS value to 60. I use this unit to control the humidity in a piano room.

The unit is a simple switch. You set the humidity at the desired level, and the switch CLOSES when it reaches that level. Your outside H<50% won't turn on the fan, it will turn off the fan. But you could have the outside H<50% control a relay to do this I think.

Yes however you will either need to cut the power plug off of your humidifier and wire it directly or wire the controller to an outlet that you can then plug your humidifier into.

No, the fan does not run all the time. Once you have set your humidity level the unit will only activate to maintain the the desired level.

According to the user manual, it will. But, I'm not going to test that feature. I think that is what killed my previous humidifier [Rosewill brand].

There is a sensor, it's built in to the humidifier so you can set the humidity level. Although I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate, I have a separate humidity sensor and the numbers are about 5 degrees of humidity apart.

NO -- not automatically anyway -- I would recommend a timer switch, that you can turn on for 10 to 30 minutes. If the dehumidistat switch is already installed you could add the timer switch in addition to it...

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

Sorry, but I haven't tried the humidifier yet. Heater capacity in a larger room is disappointing
