Humidity Offset
The humidity offset setting can be used for calibration of the indoor humidity
reading of the thermostat. For instance, if the thermostat is reading 51% and the
calibration equipment is reading 50%, then setting this value to -1% will shift the
thermostat reading to 50%.
Default:
0%
Options:
Between -10% and 10%
On Thermostat:
Select Menu > (hold) Service > Installation Settings > Thresholds >
Humidity Offset
NOTE:
Humidity sensors used in modern thermostats have defined tolerance intervals
of normal humidity readings. This means if multiple of the same thermostat model were
installed side-by-side, it would be normal for different current humidity to be displayed
(e.g. one at 52% and one at 51%). However, there are product features and installation
steps you can take to help ensure a comfortable environment.
Installation best practices for humidity accuracy:
1. Minimize the effect of air leakage, excess wiring should be pushed into the
wall and the hole should be sealed to prevent air leakage.
2. Leave the thermostat installed & powered on for at least 30 minutes before
checking calibration.
3. Ensure the thermostat is calibrated to the same temperature as the field
measurement device providing the reference relative humidity reading.
If the thermostat reading still needs adjusting after these two installation steps, adjust
the Humidity Offset.
