Help w Rule - trouble w bathroom fan

Hey @lewis.heidrick how did you make a combined humidity sensor and which room sensors did you include in that for your comparison?

The bathroom humidity app lets you combine humidity sensors. I use that as the comparison sensor. I include all 8 or 9 of the sensors in the combined to get a household avg.

Awesome! Thanks.

Hey @lewis.heidrick in the past when Iā€™ve used humidity as a trigger, the fan would turn off after a shower once humidity dropped sufficiently, but then the humidity would quickly creep back up, triggering the fan to turn on again. How do you solve for that?

Depends on the method you're using to trigger but you could raise the trigger humidity and increase the deactivation time. This would tell it to turn off sooner but delay off for longer and have a higher humidity trigger.

You could also increase the humidity increase rate so the humidity increasing trigger is harder to trigger.
