My split aircon has a "dehumidify" option which I have used but not noticed any reduction in the bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, certainly whatever works. I never would have thought bubble wrap would slow them down. Confuse the crap out of them I am sure though.

I often find that its the humidity that gets to me rather than the temperature. And using a fan together with a dehumidifier would be a cheaper option than running a/c, I would have thought.

A dehumidifier doesn't specifically cool the air, in fact a by-product of the process is heat. A dehumdifier uses a lot less power than an aircon unit hence my original question.

While it sometimes just comes up in conversation (so no big deal) others I have talked to seem to think they deserve a medal and mention they don;t have aircon every time they see you. Those are the ones I was thinking of who seem to be "bragging about it". I prefer not to use ac,it gets on my chest and my daughter has asthma which it seems to make worse.I don`t need a medal a beer will do 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy79 Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 I find I've been my own worst enemy for not acclimatizing. I've lived in Belize, Cyprus, Iraq and few other hot and humid countries where I had no air con. Within a month I was acclimatized every time. Here I use air con a lot and sweat like crazy when I go out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
