Anyone have any experience using a Humidity Sensing Fan?
Was wondering if this would be a good solution to use on an enclosed fish room with a 465 gal w/ 125 gal sump?
http://www.homedepot.ca/product/qt-s...100-cfm/914306 Not sure if the humidity setpoint is selectable so I'm a little weary if the thing will ever cut out. Any thoughts, please reply. |
Their site doesn't list the exact model but can I assume it operates the same?
http://www.nutone.com/product-detail...roductID=11229 If so, now I have another issue stating: • Sensaire® technology detects the rapid rise in humidity over time I think its safe to say the humidity will be constant and not a sudden spike so will this not work for the application? |
think I'd be looking at a cheaper fan and a $20 dehumidistat

humidity prob
I would recommend one of the Panasonic fans. awesome fans & extremely quite.
They are pricey as well but definitely worth the cash.also much better in my opinion than a nutone. you can get them online through ebay etc gore a better deal . I would not buy anything else after using one of these . |
I have one of the auto switches, not built in the fan but the actual switch has the humidity sensor. I think the switch point must be pretty high, I don't think I've ever seen it on but then again the room doesn't seem humid at all. I think for peace of mind being able to set the humidity level is a worth while feature.

:lol: Some of the Panasonic fans have humidity switches built in to automatically take care of everything. (wow I sound like a salesman Lol)
|
Thanks guys, I'll check on the options.

Fan and separate humidistat here. Mine runs all the time... I'm guessing more than half! Fan was maybe $40 and still running so only time will tell. I have my fishroom dialed to 45%.

Im a contractor and when we install auto sensing fans they have a dial inside them u can adjust, they may run all the time for the first few days depending on the % setting
