Keep an eye on the outside air dew point. It isn't a good idea to run the inside air at a temperature below that dew point. You don't want that humidity condensing/absorbing behind the sheetrock, particularly if you have a sheet of poly as a vapor barrier or vinyl wallpaper.

We had the 15,000 BTU mini split installed by Home Energy last week at the island camp. It has been pretty nice having the cottage cool and dry inside this past week.

The install went well as they had done their homework based on the initial site survey.

My Mitsubishi split has the inteligent microprocessor that takes into consideration the outside temperature as well as the inside temperature and adjust the unit accordingly. I'm not sure about the humidity although the thermostat housing shows inside and outside humidity.

You would think the processor will adjust according to the dew point.
