My son is interesting in perhaps installing a Humidity Switch on a Fantastic Fan, but can't find anything on them. He lives in Alaska & has a Lance TC. Anyone have one or know anything about them. Your Pros & Cons would be much appreciated. Thanks!

We used to call them a "humidastat". Mounted on the wall like a thermostat. Used them in sensitive computer environmental areas where if the humidity would get too high it would bring on the air conditioning to condense water from the air to lower humidity and if temperature was too cool would bring on reheat to warm the air control temperature. Haven't seen or heard of one in years, but could try heating/air-conditioning supply sources.

Ours have a speed setting and also a temp setting along with rain sensor. Never heard of a "Humidity switch" on a Fantastic Fan.
