We do have a humidity indicator ($10 Type) to monitor the master bedroom, bathroom, closet, and shower area which is essentially our more humid area. I have a portable Dehumidifier set up to keep the humidity in this area at no more than 50% when we are gone for extended summer periods. It is set up by removing the collector bucket and attaching a short hose run into the walk in shower drain.

I think you may mean that the supply fan in the garage is picking up moisture from the evaporator coil in the air handling unit, also located in the garage. The condenser coil is located outside of the house. In the cooling season, the condenser coil does not get wet, and even if it did, the condenser fan would not carry any moisture into the house. It just blows air outside.
