12/1/20: The humidity inside was a bit high, however with the temperatures outside at or below 70° the system won’t run and there’s really no setting we can put it out to remedy. I did check to make sure that the AC system would run and cool and it did.
12/1/20: There’s quite a bit of debris inside the outside condensing unit that should be cleaned soon, photo below. The showerhead in the guest bedroom bath is shooting water over top of the glass divider when turned on. This could be just a loose fitting where the head meets the pipe or it could be a cracked fitting at that point I can’t quite see.

11/30/20: Some debris on the bottom of the pool., Humidity hi inside the home so I set the thermostat to 75° and the humidistat to 55% down from 78° and humidistat set at 60%. This time of year the thermostat should be set much closer to the temperature outside for the AC system will never run.

One has brown the grass under it and the other is actually being grown over and into the lawn photos below. One large wasp nest on the front exterior light photo below. The humidity was high inside your home so I reduced the thermostat setting from 80 to 78°. I do this because the outside temperature will not reach hi enough time to run the system at all if I didn’t. It may not even set at 78°. Humidity will build if we can’t get the AC to run humidity.
