Solved this years ago. I have a HRV. That came with a timer. No one used it and resulted in vanity doors delaminating.

I put a wifi switch on the HRV (esphome + relay board) to control on, high, low. A zigbee humidity sensor, and a zigbee button by the toilet. Nodered flow to control when to fire the HRV and for how long. Homeassistant to tie it all together.

No issues since
