Possible Causes

Contaminated humidity sensor, Condensation damage, Sensor drift over time, Firmware calibration issue

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No high‑voltage work is required.

  • Step 1 – Compare with reference: Use a known‑good hygrometer near GLAS to verify the discrepancy.
  • Step 2 – Dry out environment: If condensation is present on or near the thermostat, allow it to dry completely and improve ventilation.
  • Step 3 – Reboot and update: Power cycle GLAS and install any available firmware updates.
  • Step 4 – Relocate if necessary: Avoid installing GLAS in bathrooms, over humidifiers, or in kitchens where steam is common.
  • Step 5 – Replace thermostat: Persistent large errors indicate a failed humidity sensor. Replace the GLAS thermostat.
