I understand this unit does shut off when the set humidity level is reached, but will it automatically come back on when it needs to?

Yes, when the humidity level rises a couple of percent above the set level it will come back on.
477389
Yes. It will turn back on and run until it reaches the desired level again or until the resevoir is full.

Yes, cycles on and off as needed....I have mine connected to a hose that empties into my sump pump . Just clean the filter once every couple weeks and good to go. Much quieter than my previous machine and Energy star rated !

Yes. We love this unit. Live by the beach and this has really solved our damp basement problem.

I don't know. I have never set it. We have it in the basement and it always running, until it fills the bucket then stops...

Just my assessment from here...Make sure reservoir is full, inserted onto unit, turn on with remote, and double check the humidity setting. If the setting is too low, it will not come on. Humidity setting should be set at higher level than the humidity level in the room. Just my 2 cents.

you don't need a humidity sensing switch, you might want to go with a timer that keeps the fan running for a certain time after manually initiated

I've had mine for over a year and never experienced what you describe. Mine turns off and back on according to my humidity setting. Seems like a mechanical issue which might be under warranty.

It does not turn off complete, the fan still runs when it reaches the set limit, but it does not output any moisture at that point. It turns on and off the mist only, not the fan.

Humidity is a difficult thing to regulate as it can fluctuate wildly within a home. The unit tends to start and stop randomly as its sensor indicates whether to run or not. Remember its reading the humidity level at the machine which is obviously not a true reading of entire house. By changeing the % as the machine runs is a good way to do it. If the machine shuts off and you feel that it should keep running, simply lower the humidity level and the machine will start up again.

Turns off when reservoir is full or humidity level is reached and does NOT turn on after power outage. I run it until it fills in a very humid environment.

No. When it reaches target humidity it switches to fan only until the humidity comes back up. If you have it hooked to a hose instead of the reservoir it never shuts down completely. In a power outage, it will come back on at your selected settings when the power comes back on. That's why I chose this one. It is important to keep mold from growing when we leave for a month or two.

The humidify auto on/off doesn't work. Might just be my unit. I like the unit because it is quiet and has 2 speeds. It was suppose to be 35% humidity on this unit.

When the humidity level you chose is reached the mist turns off but the unit stays on.

No it doesn't have an auto shut off, it flashes red when it is low. As for the color I believe the instructions tell you how to do so, but I gave up, since mine liked to flash only one color red. By the way it is just a mini humidifier, that requires constant water because the container is quite small and requires to be filled every 8 hours.

You can set your desired humidity level and it will shut off when it reaches the set %. It'll kick back on when the humidity level drops below your set % again.

The fan only switches mode after a quick on/off. I usually leave it in the auto mode, first turned on. It will speed-up as the humidity rises and later slow down or even shutoff if the humidity gets low. If you want it to run full speed just give it a quick on/off.

No, it doesn't turn off automatically as such -- the fan stays on as long as the unit is on. But the humidity control is automatic. For example, if you leave it at 40% the fan will run with humid air coming out the top until the relative humidity reaches 40%, then the humid air will stop coming out but the fan will remain on until the sensor determines that moist air should come on again.

it shuts off completely. I have mine set as low as it goes and keeps things very comfortable. It turns on automatically to keep the temp constant.

Yes. I own a couple units. I couldn't get the humidity high enough that it would ever shut off. Granted I try to place them near a return duct for it to benefit other areas of the home as well.

Yes it shuts off when it reaches the temp you set it to. If the temp falls bellow it will turn on again and off again when temp is reached.
