Dehumidification in hot, humid weather
Roof leak led to tarp on roof, which is causing extreme humidity upstairs (windows fogged over). Turned on air conditions upstairs to get rid of heat and humidity. Result:
What I can't figure out is why the air conditioning seems to be worsening the humidity problem around the unit. I think the combination of hot, humid summer, the roof tarp, and poor attic ventilation is the problem. I will have roof vents installed when the roof is replaced. There are soffit vents and gable vents, but the gable vents are too small. In the meantime, what can I do to reduce the humidity upstairs and avoid more mold? Pretty worried about the health impacts at this point. Thanks! |
