humidistat
Humidity control switch
A humidistat is a device that monitors and regulates humidity levels, functioning like a thermostat but for moisture rather than temperature.
It automatically triggers humidifiers or dehumidifiers to maintain a set humidity range: The humidistat kicked on the dehumidifier when moisture levels rose above 50%.
