Why Swampeast MO?

Heat gain calculations don't account!

1) 8 tons of A/C in a 1,400 s.f. 2nd floor bar. Cooler condensing units on the WHITE roof. Only daytime load from a single-head "Jet-Spray", a very few fluorescent bulbs and typical transformers from cash registers, etc. Temp at noon: 85 Both units turned on. Temp at 5:00 p.m. 81 degrees. NO OCCUPANCY. At 8:00 p.m. 79 degrees. 3 occupants.

2) 7 tons of A/C in a 3,300 s.f. ranch home. 5 tons serve original, 2 tons for 500 s.f. addition. Temp at supper: 83 degrees with A/C running constantly since mid-morning. Addition 77 degrees (setpoint) with very heavy "on" cycles.

Dewpoint around 75 for the last few weeks. Non A/C space around 65% relative humidity, A/C space around 50%.
