I have read refference in these threads to an outdoor sensor which will overide the humidistat depending on outdoor temperature to prevent condensation. What is this device? Is it part of the thermostat/humidistat, or is it an add-on of some sort. I have a digital thermostat with a manual humidistat, and it is a pain to have to adjust the humidity level depending on the outdoor temp, particualy because the humidistat does not read accurately, so it is trial and error every time I adjust it. I tried a search of the thread but came up with nothing.
