We keep ours at 81, when we run it. Guess I'm kinda used to the heat being a native.

I just moved to Englewood and have had the A/C on very little but today it's set to 79-80. It's 85 outside and HUMID which makes it feel much hotter.

In Naples it seemed the A/C was never off except for the couple of cold weeks in January. It was a hot winter.

Cool humidistat info ?

So far it has worked perfectly. Remember, it is not the heat that causes mold, it is humidity.

FRANK........... CAN YOU please elaborate on the humidistat ? I had never heard of it before and am very interested. Thank you.
