u/reluctantly_me

I am in GA with a 1800 sq foot house with a 16 ft vaulted ceiling in the living room. The temps and humidity have been fluctuating some lately so I don't know if I am being just overly paranoid or what. But the house doesn't feel like it used to. My old unit would run about 40 minutes when it clicked on . The new unit is running about 20 minutes a time. My kitchen feels way warmer than it should and the humidity level is higher in the house. Now, today, outside it was a higher temp (91) with a lower humidity (58) and the house did get down to 39% humidity. I am running the inside temp on 74 on the new unit. I used to run the old unit at 76.

Does that extra half ton mean that I am now doomed to super fluctuating humidity in my house and running a dehumidifier and ceiling fans forever? Is there anything that can fix this short of making the HVAC company just put a smaller unit back in?

(I am ordering some small humidity/temp sensors to put in different rooms in the house to track what I happening so I can make sure I am not hitting "everything in the house molds" levels of humidity)

Thank you for reading!

What. Does. The Morrigan. Do?!?

Who else is wondering about how long the wait for book 8/part 4 will be?

I thought I was getting a 3.5 ton unit to replace 26 year old 3.5 ton unit but they actually installed a 4 ton unit my house feels really unbalanced humidity now.
