Humidistat Accuracy

Hi Ron,

In a grand with an H-3 Humidistat positioned 4 to 6 inches from the
Humidifier we see a 3-4 hour cycle.  The Dehumidifier is energized about 1/3
of the time.

Adding an undercover and positioning the H-3 at 12 to 14 inches from the
Humidifier results in a cycle time as short as an hour.  We believe this is
a reflection of the system working in a more confined space.

It is our opinion that a shorter and more regular cycle allows for more
effective stabilization of soundboard moisture content.

Thanks,

Roger
