Comments about Honeywell Honeywell H8908DSPST Low Voltage Dehumidistat:

Easy to install if the correct wiring diagram was provided. Had to contact Honeywell and speak with a knowledgeable technician who indicated the wiring diagram in the instructions was incorrect if hooked-up to an existing thermostat to control humidity using a central AC unit. One wire from the dehumidistat has to be attached to the yellow position on the thermostat and the other to the RC terminal. Make sure the thermostat is in the cool position before turning on the dehumidistat.

Comments about Honeywell Honeywell H8908DSPST Low Voltage Dehumidistat:

I ordered this dehumidstat to save $$$ while I am away from central Florida during our very humid summer rainy season. It is easy to install because it's just a switch installed in the line that sends current to the outdoor A/C condenser. But the setting of the control knob is very specific. I set mine at 60%(actual as measured by an external meter) which reads about 68% on the Honeywell control. Be sure to set your thermostat to 79 degrees (no higher) or the system will run too long--costing you money.
