Re: Humidity problem

["rb_ziggy" <richard.boreham@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not sure if this may help but I noticed recently that Xpelair do a
remote humidity sensor controller (called the XRH on their site)
which is designed to be separately wall mounted.  Looks like it may
have adjustments (timer / humidity level perhaps) on the unit.  Don't
have any other info (not much more on the site) but you may be able
to find out something from a distributor.

You might be able to use this to control your in loft unit.
