I did not think I would like this, but since the fan is so quiet, I don't mind it, though in our tiny bath (5' x 8.5', plus the shower to the side), we did turn it so the sensor is not pointed toward the door.
Can be used to comply with ASHRAE 62.2, LEED, CALGreen, and ENERGY STAR 3.0.
I couldn't find it with my searches. It was turning on if anyone was even in the hallway. Other contaminants may cause permanent damage to the dielectric.
The floor would be constructed with a preslope (we use a shower mud product instead of the preformed as we have seen issues with the foam) then a shower pan (flexible liner) that covers the floor, any benches built into the shower and turns slightly up the walls - it goes in first and the turned up portion is behind the durock.

Thanks Nancy!
I hope not, but from your description on a two year old home I think there are more issues. What size rectangular undermount bathroom sinks should I shop for? If so, choose very carefully the person that you want to fix it.
"What is CFM?" 
It relies on a dielectric material and how that material changes as a function of relative humidity.
The difference in the cold exterior wall and the warmth of the shower wall can cause condensation. 
I read some options about other means of heating the bathroom, but we have really small bathrooms so I really didn't want to have multiple units in there. "Help! Once the waterproofing sits for a day, we install the tile and then grout. We do not use the Schluter system, but it is also an excellent system that works very well in showers - if it is installed properly.
If it still senses moisture after the time elapses, it will stay on for that period of time again.

dchall_san_antonio - humidistat and 1.8GPM showerheads just to name a few of crazy CA requirements :) People seem to cheat and work around inspections because of these.
Each plate has a leg for an electrical connection. If it comes back within a couple of months, then you have other issues to address.
You can buy a DewStop directly from the company itself or from Amazon or hardware stores, Menards, etc. In the world of humidity, chilled mirror hygrometers achieve this by controlling the temperature of a surface so that condensation remains in an equilibrium state on that surface. 
The tradeoff between the two technologies: users of capacitive sensors sacrifice some performance for price, simplicity and ease of use. If your vanity sits on the floor, you could put a kick space heater under it. This is not simple. By contrast, the capacitive humidity sensor is a secondary device. 
Then you know the seal is especially the culprit for sure. This is the nature of capacitive humidity sensors. 3) By far the most common cause of excess water behind tile is improper installation. Glad to hear you love it. These contaminants can be sneaky. In a properly constructed shower, to control the moisture from causes 1 and 2 above, the entire shower area, including ceiling if tiled and curb, would be totally lined with a cement board (like durock, permabase, etc.)
First of all, the plates have to be permeable to water vapor or the response time of the sensor would be far too slow.
We keep the door closed now in cold weather because we have a separate heater in the room for supplemental heat.
If I ever think about moving back to California, someone please slap me. When we chose new FULL Replacement installed windows we went with the newer Triple Pane Soft-lite Imperial windows.
We can now go into the bathroom and be toasty warm for undressing.
We see showers and/or tub surrounds that are lined with green board (moisture resistent drywall) instead of cement board. 
Additional features include a blue LED light to indicate when the fan is on and a matching wall plate for a decora style design. 1) There is always a certain amount of water that penetrates a tile wall.
When the sensor is exposed to them, they create measurement error. (Just hoping someone gives an answer I am hoping for ;). (We also mud the top of shower curbs and the top of any seats/benches that we build into a shower. The reviews on Panasonic/Leviton etc seem to be really mixed. 
The most difficult contaminants are chemicals that interfere with or change the nature of the dielectric material.
Thanks so much Lawrence for pointing me to the right information. DewStop is the company that makes the condensation-sensing switch.
Anything in the gas that disagrees with the sensor can alter the sensors performance.
We see showers with no secondary drain or one that was totally stopped up with grout.
Really appreciate it! You can always just install a simple infrared bulb heater. I have one in my current home and everyone wants to take a shower in that bathroom :), I was planning to use the following that had everything until my contractor told me that legally I need one with humidity sensor (I am in CA where they have special requirements for everything!)

"What does GFCI stand for?"
Now you have to enter the room to make it turn on. We are "testing" our new windows in one room to see if and when condensation / freezing occurs or does not.
Tile and grout (even when properly sealed) do not stop moisture from seeping through. If have top down bottom up blinds the keep the top "open" and bottom "open" some to allow the air to circulate.

All motorized exhaust fans have a CFM rating that defines it's capacity to move air. There is a timer on the switch, which you can adjust for the length of time you want it to run after it turns on.
That is an interesting idea.
The fans have to be controlled by a humidistat.
A. CFM stands for Cubic Feet Per Minute. Any suggestions on which switches would fulfill this function? I have something called a Cove Heater that is electric radiant heat that is run by thermostat and is mounted up near the ceiling and it "shines down" radiant heat that warms objects in the room, silently warming the entire place.

I can't believe they mandated a humidistat. pmgzb, I have no personal knowledge of this switch, sorry. So, let's do a quick run-down Q. This completely ruins the whole shower system - you just created a collander allowing water to seep through everywhere. In some cases, when the sensor is removed from service for calibration, the contaminants may outgas and the measurement error disappears.
Read the idea of making a shade so tight it acts like a window. I do have a wall switch if I want to turn the fan on or off manually. We changed our bathroom fan to a Panasonic modern fan that has a motion and humidity sensor to help lower humidity. But certainly worth investigating. Capacitive humidity sensors are simple.
Fundamental measurement devices depend on some intrinsic physical phenomenon to provide consistent, high performance measurement. The plates are typically very thin layers of metal, often sputtered onto a base material.
Is there something else you are looking for? We are rebuilding our home and I really like the idea of having bathroom exhausts with heater. They consist of two plates sandwiching a dielectric material. The temperature of the surface is measured, yielding a very accurate dewpoint measurement expressed in the International System of Units.
Electronic circuits for measuring the sensor have to be designed carefully to measure this small change, and stray capacitance has to be eliminated in all wiring that connects the sensor to the electronics. Dust can accumulate on the sensor with a similar effect. Well, its not really that easy. Generally one would put little pebbles around the secondary drain to keep grout from stopping it up. Plus the model I have also has a motion sensor. The sensor is attached to an appropriate device for measuring capacitance. I am hoping some experts here have better suggestions. master bath ventilation: venting skylight or fan?
catbuilder - haven't heard of dewstop switches.
Typically when the seal of a window is broken one will see fogging inside the window panes (which cant be wiped off the inside of the windows surface since it is between the windows panes. Some sensors are manufactured in clean rooms to obtain uniformity and consistency. To change the tub out or not to Change it out?
Or you can buy a Panasonic brand condensation-sensing switch, which is actually a DewStop switch (not a copy of one, or an upgrade of one, but it actually says DewStop on the switch) and pay a whole lot more for the privilege of saying you have a Panasonic switch. If it helps you at all, here is a heating alternative that we are loving here at our house.
The higher the CFM number, the greater the fans capacity.
I decided that with the remodel, the room's supplemental heat needed to come from a different source.
Moisture will always be present behind the tile in a shower.
Grout is a porous material.
When my contractor said we could eliminate the soffit above the vanity, though, we had room for the smallest cove heater.
If the fan and the cleaning/resealing work then you have invested wisely in getting it fixed.

Cabinet Pantries, Get Cleaner Indoor Air Without Opening a Window, 6 Elements of a Perfect Bathroom Paint Job. It probably will dry your hair really well, too! Q.
I will check with our contractor regarding this.
Tile showers have been around for a very long time, and yet we see only about 20% of showers built in the last 15 years that are done properly. 
The seams between the cement boards would be taped and sealed.
If they don't match, the device disconnects itself and any receptacles it protects from the electrical source.
Furthermore, the actual change in the sensors capacitance is quite small over the humidity range of 10 - 90%. I think, however, that you are going to find that you have other problems with the tile installation.
How does the moisture get there?
For example, small oil droplets in aerosol form can coat the sensor, forming a barrier that limits water vapor permeability. Sensors from different manufacturers may react differently because of differences in dielectric material or sensor design. 
A.
Lawrence, thanks for suggesting so many options!
- For California, is humidity sensor really required by law?
We are remodeling two bathrooms which are side-by-side on the 2nd floor of our home. This device constantly monitors the current flow in the hot and neutral conductors. I always hate to hear of these type issues.
dchall, sometimes you actually need to remove that moist air from the home, not just move it around. Find out the whys and hows here, High-quality paint alone won't cut it. Then everything in the shower (walls, ceiling, curb, floor, floor outside of shower) is waterproofed. We will be installing a Panasonic inline exhaust fan (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EDUIX2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00) in the attic space immediately above both bathrooms, and since bathrooms are relatively small (10 x 10), we got a single 240 CFM fan to use with a Y-adapter for the ducts to service both bathrooms with the same fan. You can also turn it on manually if you like. The photo showing the condensation and ice is the worst could even imagine! If you post back on this thread it will notify us.
Q.
All sensors have strengths and weaknesses when it comes to contamination, but sorting them out is nearly impossible without direct testing. The reasons for this are 1) a lack of knowledge on the part of some contractors and/or tile setters and 2) that it costs considerably more to construct a shower correctly. Is Panasonic a brand you recommend if we do decide to go switch route. We see showers where no waterproofing was done (and it is an expensive step). Keep the HVAC Fan ON, Open the windows blinds to allow the air to circulate during the day. If yes, do I even need one for powder bath (with no shower) and master toilet (which is a small enclosed room by itself), - Is humidity sensor required even with the heater combo?
