You technically want a "dehumidistat" not a "humidistat" (they exist, the HRV's come with them).

Anyone know where these De-Humidistats exist? They were not at the Home Hardware or Rona I was at, I assume it will be a more specialty type store.

Afraid not. Maybe try a greenhouse supply or a heating (furnace) place and see if they can order you one.
I did find this one at grainger.com but wow .. not cheap  http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/wwg...632223&ccitem=

That is a bit pricey, a humidistat with a relay is about half the price, but a lot more work. Maybe I can find a cheaper one at a furnace place like you said.

thought I'd try to revive this thread rather than starting a new one, so it's kind of like a one stop shop for info on humidity issues and options to solve.
Has anyone using a dehumidifier or a bathroom ventilation fan experienced corrosion from the salt creep? Any solutions to this problem? Both my bathroom fan (went within weeks of install) and my dehumidifier (about a year before the humidity sensor coroded) have died due to salt creep/corrosion.

Just bought a another dehumidifier from home depot. Already have a Danby 3 way (air conditioner & dehumidifier) for the family room, 75 gal, bought this one for the den 90 gal + 30 sump. 219.00 on sale if they can find them. Works great.
