Some other info...
The outdoor air is very humid here.. 20% min to 80s in the AM/PM
The indoor air is quite comfortable to me at 80F -- I'm assuming because it's pulling so much moisture out of the air. It can keep up just fine for the 12x24x8H space it's intended to cool. Every once in awhile I open the door to another 24x24 area and it even does a decent job of lowering the humidity such that I can do my woodworking over there. (I really need to poke another one of these in the wall on that side, but for now it does the job).
When the compressor runs it draws 950 to 1250 watts. Right now it's about 88F outside and drawing 1017 watts, and climbs up a bit as it runs during that cycle. When it was close to 100F, the draw was around 1250
The unit is probably 6 years old.
