Smart Humidity Control And Display User Guide

Smart Humidity Control and Display brings exciting features to the Smart Thermostat. Users with an eligible Smart Thermostat (ADC-T3000 or ADC-T2000) can view and control the humidity level in their home or business using the website or app.  

Humidity notifications provide an extra layer of protection against mold growth. The Smart Humidity function is beneficial in varying climates from very hot and humid areas in the summer to very cold or dry areas in the winter.

For information about installing or configuring Smart Humidity, contact your service provider.

View current humidity level

Users with a Smart Thermostat and compatible security panel or hub can now see their current humidity level by clicking on the thermostat card on the website or app.

Note: The ADC-T3000 locally displays the humidity percentage. No Smart Thermostat firmware version is required to display the humidity level on the website and app, but Smart Humidity Control requires ADC-T2000 version 1.50+. For information about how to find the thermostat firmware, contact your service provider.

The following image displays a thermostat with a 44% humidity reading on the app. 

The following image displays two thermostats on the home page of the website. The first thermostat is in heat mode with a 20% humidity reading. The second thermostat is in auto mode with a 25% humidity reading. 

Enable the Smart Humidity feature 

Customers can enable Smart Humidity Control using the Customer Website or app.

Important: While the ADC-T3000 is natively compatible with humidity control, the ADC-T2000 must be on version 1.50+. For information about how to find the thermostat firmware, contact your service provider.

The default setting is 3⁰F (1.5⁰C) and generally does not need to be adjusted.
