How this automation works
Humidity below 30% can cause dry skin, irritate your nasal passages and throat, and make your eyes itchy. This recipe saves energy by switching off your dehumidifier (plugged into a Belkin Wemo switch) when humidity is low. Add the other recipe that switches on the dehumidifier at high humidity to completely automate humidity control.

Create your own WeMo Insight Switch and Awair workflow
Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.
31 triggers, queries, and actions
Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) alert
Realtime trigger
Realtime Applets run after the trigger service notifies IFTTT of a new trigger event. Since IFTTT is notified proactively of new trigger events, realtime Applets normally run within a few seconds of a trigger event occurring.
This Trigger fires if the concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) measured from your Awair device rises above the threshold you specified for more than 30 seconds.
Daily cost rises above
Polling trigger
Polling Applets run after IFTTT reaches out to the trigger service and finds a new trigger event. These trigger checks occur every 5 minutes for Pro and Pro+ users, and every hour for Free users.
This Trigger fires when the cost of the device attached to your WeMo Insight Switch rises above the daily value you specify.
