All I'm willing to try to remember on that subject is when air cools it still has the same amount of water in it, so if you let in a bunch of really wet air during the night to cool the house _maybe_ you shouldn'ta 'cause the AC can't actually start lowering the air temp until it's got the air dry enough. Shawn: Humidity isn't really a problem in Colorado.  Last week we had a couple of days when the humidity was 6 to 7%. My husband closely watches the delta between indoor and outdoor temperatures and when it's more than a couple of degrees cooler outside, the windows and doors get opened and the central a/c turned off. Much of the time it works well. My complaint was that it was hot enough this summer that, after we finished painting the house, I had no desire to go outdoors the rest of the summer.  The gardens is evidence, a mass of weeds. gloria p Subject  Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches  Re: Peppers and peaches
