Possible Causes
Thermostat near bathroom or kitchen moisture sources, Rapid humidity changes from ventilation, Internal humidity sensor drift, Incorrect dehumidification settings
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No high‑voltage work is required.
- Check location: Avoid installing the thermostat near bathrooms, kitchens, or exterior doors where humidity changes rapidly.
- Ventilation patterns: Ensure exhaust fans and HRV/ERV systems are not blowing directly on the thermostat.
- Compare with hygrometer: Use a separate humidity meter to verify readings.
- Adjust humidity control: In settings, widen the humidity differential or disable aggressive dehumidification if it causes frequent cycling.
- Replace if sensor is unstable: If readings jump wildly without environmental cause, the internal sensor may be failing.
