Today my bathroom and toilet both have a manual system in place, where the light switch also starts a humidity fan. If i want to automate the light, I will also have to automate the fan (otherwise it’s always on). Which humidity sensors and smart switch (for the fan) do other people use?

I use two Xiaomi Aqara humidity sensors, one in bathroom and one in e.g. the study. If difference between the two is bigger than 7% start fan, if lower than 5% stop it again (or in my case high and medium setting on central ventilation Itho). The Xiaomi sensors are cheap on Chinese sites. And they w…

My setup for this is an Aeotec Multisensor 6 (permanent powered) which I use both for motion and humidity, plus a Fibaro double switch which controls the light and fan.

Could you share your flows? I’m probably setting up the same system soon.

Sure. They’re in Dutch, ask if something is not clear enough.

The conditions (and) use a Homey logic card to compare t…

Thanks, that’s a very interesting approach! I’d really like to see @danone his flows as well, if he’s willing to share. I currently have only a Multisensor 6 laying around…

Long story short, some 6-7 months ago I gave up Homey due to endless z-wave problems. Now I hear all good and in the process of setting Homey back :grinning: I have all the old flows saved as screenshots and once I get home (end of this week), I shall share this particular one here. Thanks for your…

Hi @tlangelaar , would you mind sharing how you’ve hooked up your itho perilex ventilation to Homey?
