ok. i live in georgia. fairly hot and humid summers. i have central a/c. it;s old but it works ok.
i have some dehumidifiers i could also run in the house.
i know that would a. help the a/c by drying the air but b. not help it, by heating the air up as it is dried.
so my question is, for the same degree of comfort in the house, would it use more energy, in a month, to run a dehumidifier or not?
what about more than one?
