    The Ecosteam sneaks it's way into air conditioning.




    Right now, it opens Y1 at 62F and closes at 70F.
    We'll see how that works for normal use.

    Ok good, we all agree I'm delicate.
    I have no problem with honesty.

    Although............I was up in the 111F attic today for a short while pulling wire, so I think I get a few points for that.

    I'll give you points @ChrisJ There's no way I'm going in the attic at this time of year unless I have to
    You can have it good, fast or cheap. Pick two

    Bah Mr. M. Sitting at the patio drinking Franziskaner wishing the dew point was higher. Something about an ice cold wheat beer, or any beer for that matter sweating on the bottle makes it more presentable. I like balmy. As you get older it's much more palatable than below zero.

    What you go up to see if your anti perspirant works? Get done, and out of there......you could probably use a container of monkey butt.

    I apologize for the crudity of this model I didn't have time to build it to scale or paint it.

    Just don't fall off the toilet! You might break the clock.

    Here we are 102 actual with feel like 102.
    But RH at 21 with DP at 54. Dryer than usual....grass fire time.
    I just came in from outside and this room feels uncomfortable at 77 degrees. That is my Tstat setting.....my wife's is set at 74.

    So,

    Another example of humidity

    This is in one of the bedrooms, which I intentionally keep cooler than the first floor.




    Under most conditions, I have no problem pulling those bedrooms down to 68F with decent humidity.




    Outside was just splendid




    Those highs and lows reset at midnight and this was around 6AM.

    Your return and supply are vastly over sized. Why have a 3 ton air handler with 800 cfm 1000 would be my minimum and 1200 would be better.

    Yes I know I'm late to this party. I've been busy doing nothing. And I haven't been starting that until noon.

    Yes, my supplies and returns are oversized.
    Like I said in the other thread, air flow isn't a concern. :D

    I'm confused by your "why have a 3 ton air handler" comment though? Because that's what the house needs?
