F. POSITIONING CONTROLS AND SENSORS
(1) When positioning controls and sensors, ensure other factors do not influence these
devices and give incorrect inputs to the unit. Some of these influences are:
(a) The wall humidistat should not be installed on an outside wall or hot or cold
surface.
(b) The sensor should be installed away from any heat source and away from direct
sunlight and away from any water vapor producing source.
(c) The wall surface should be flat and clean.
(d) Any draft originating from the wall interior should be prevented from interacting
with the humidity sensor. A vapor barrier should be installed.
(e) Location of sensor must be representative of space humidity therefore avoid
drafts, temperature variation or overhangs that may prevent the sensor from
sensing an accurate representation of the space humidity.
(f) Duct sensors should be placed in a location that assures any and all absorption
has been accomplished.
