Abstract
A control for regulating relative humidity in an enclosure including a thermostat, a relative humidity sensor, a refrigeration compressor and an air blower. The compressor is run at low or high speeds in response to thermostat demand. Whenever the relative humidity is excessive the compressor low speed control is overridden to effect high compressor speed.
