Re: How accurate are the Set & Forget systems?
If you are referring to Bob Staebell's systems, I have heard that they are as good as it gets. Another system I have heard good things about is the Moist-N-Aire.

SUPER accurate. Have had the set n forget system for about 4 years or so (thanks CA fam) and it is the most accurate automatic system I've ever used.

Re: How accurate are the Set & Forget systems?
One thing with my Hydra -- I find that it is accurate as far as achieving and maintaining my specified RH. However, I also find that the RH (hygro) display on the unit is so far out of whack that it is impossible to calibrate.
To make this all work I use calibrated hygros to check/validate my hydras. Seems to work OK (so far).

Re: How accurate are the Set & Forget systems?
Jordan - I have hygrometers on the top and middle shelf of my Aristocrat. While there's a RH differential between the two shelves, the readings themselves never change. Doesn't matter if it's summer (when the cooling system kicks in fairly often) or winter. The temperature and RH stays rock constant.
I'm not sure if the controller is accurate in the reading it displays or not, because I originally adjusted everything based on "feel" rather than what any of the hygrometers said. I don't worry much about the numbers. But once I got things acclimated to where I wanted it, it's never changed. Also I have one of the older LCD controllers, not the newer LED one (not that it should matter). It's a great system. |

Re: How accurate are the Set & Forget systems?
I have Bob's on my Aristocrat and it runs like a charm, extremely accurate.
I check on it once every six months or so by comparing with another digital hygrometer.
