Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a dehumidifier, instead of using a humidistat setting, allows you to set the time on and the time off?
Example: Set the dehumidifier to run for a half hour, then be off for an hour. This cycle repeats over and over.
Almost all new dehumidifiers have electronic controls.
My mechanical control dehumidifier recently "died". I used an external controller I made that employs a binary counter. The dehumidifier, which was set to "Max", was plugged into this external device. When the power was off, in effect it is the same as "unplugging" the dehumidifier. I used this system for years and it worked GREAT. Note: I use a humidity gauge.
PROBLEM:
With electronic control dehumidifiers, "unplugging" (in effect) the dehumidifier for a half hour or more, most likely will cause it to loose the settings. Thanks in advance, Brad
