1/25/21: Call clean water level good, I found the child safety gate for the pool centerpieces in backwards which meant you couldn’t clip that section to safely keep it from have a child lift it and get into the pool.

1/25/21: The humidity is a bit high but acceptable. I turned the system on and I did run and cool so on days when it doesn’t get very cool outside inside your house remains cool so the thermostat shut it down before it comes on to remove humidity. Hey suggestion would be to move the thermostat down to 72° leaving the dehumidistat at 55% for these cool days will have for the next month or so.
