I just moved into a house in Florida this past Spring which has a thermostat and a separate dehumidistat. The dehumidistat apparently controls the air conditioner separately from the thermostat. Even if the thermostat is off, the dehumidistat will kick on the A/C if it is set below the actual humidity level in the house.
Should I use both of them in conjunction with one another during the summer? If not, I'm wondering why the dehumidistat was even installed since there is not a dehumidifier in the house.
Thanks in advance!
