Temperature and humidity is all I have other data sources to verify and even then it’s only temperature

• sensor is currently in my family room addition and it closely tracks the Remotec rm-22 ir blaster temperature there, so excellent. But a secondary goal is to decide whether it’s really worth it turning down the heat at night. You can see the family room heat pump takes most of the day to bring the temperature back up. I don’t think it’s a problem but heat pump sees the air temp is about right so doesn’t add much heat, while the thermal mass of the slab takes hours to come up to temperature
• humidity is fascinating how different from the rest of the house but believable: family room is running a heat pump so would dry, main house is a gas furnace burning inside air, so pulling in high humidity outside air. So mid-afternoon, for example, when both are heating you can see the heat pump dries type air while furnace raises humidity, while overnight the humidity evens out as both are off and the air circulates. This morning is explained by the heat pump being off: I was wonder why it’s a bit chilly. The temperature rising in the morning is misleading because there is some air circulation from the rest of the house
