I wonder if there is another way to connect things?
One interesting thing he pointed out was that HVAC system load calculations are predicated on a max exterior temperature of something like 92 or 94 degrees (I forget the exact number). If the exterior temperature exceeds that, the system's ability to cool faster than the space heats is compromised. And if you think, oh, just oversize the system then, you'd be making a mistake as well. Over-sized systems don't run enough for proper dehumidification and most houses I've been in do not have a dedicated dehumidification loop. My friend has one in his house, but it uses dedicated vent lines and everything, so it's a sizeable investment. That's actually where things like this system start to become interesting.
