I would refer to mandate of < 65% R.H. as a HAZARD WARNINGWhile I agree that <50%RH would be ideal, and I absolutely expect my Green Speed to maintain that when running full blast, I discovered that the ASHRAE guidance recommends <65%RH according to the link below.
https://www.ashrae.org/File%20Librar...-01-FAQ-92.pdf
and definitely not term it as ASHRAE guidance.
As far as R.H.% comfort level is concerned, > 50% is QUITE NOTICABLE as ANNOYING / DISLIKED to the Majority of people.
I would go as far as saying > 55% R.H. indicates that A/C equipment is truly disfunctional IMO.
