Hi List, I had a customer, who came from S.C., she just had the humidistat and heater installed. This I can understand, is all that is needed in that climate. However the heater bar was plugged into the de-humidifier socket. It had not been changed since the original installation, as I had to cut a ty-wrap so that it would reach the proper socket. The humidistat was attached to the side of the case. She told me the tech had installed lots of them, and demonstrated to her that it was working, because it was hot. I can only assume that he thought it was mislabelled. I thought about it and figured that he probably came from an air-conditioned car, to the house, which wasn't and not realizing the humidistat is slow acting, put it in the only socket which would work. The only other thought is he was one of the 'red neck' ones we joke about, and didn't know the difference between de-humidifier, and humidifier :-) Regards, John M.
