I recently purchased a winter condo. i.e. it will stand empty nine months of the year. I am concerned about moisture and related problems. I have been told to install a humidistat. I purchased a Honeywell. It says to parallel the blower motor. I can not find schematics for Rheem model RBHC-14JO6NFH(06/2004) ser T M2604. Please tell me how to locate the connection points in my electric furnace for proper operation. Thank you.

The Local AC guys install the humidistat in series with the red from transformer, and set to 65%, this shuts down whole system.
Could be wired other ways.
Mount next to, above or below the thermostat, remove red from thermostat, connect to 1 lead on humidistat, and other wire from humidistat goes to thermostat where the red was.
