I don't think my wife would go along with that idea.
I moved here from Poinciana, FL so I'm familiar with the Florida humidity. My home A/C in Poinciana was set at 75 degrees and it was cool to the point we used blankets in the evening to watch TV.
Is there something I'm missing, e.g. have the freon checked in the A/C unit? Flush out the condensate line (although there doesn't seem to be much condensate exiting the house). Or could it be something else. Is a whole house de-humidifier the answer?
All feedback is welcome!  |
Set the thermostat humidity to 50 and you'll get 50. You probably have it set to 63 and over looked this step.
