A warm and humid beach cabin is extremely uncomfortable, and your beach cabin energy costs can skyrocket due to an underperforming Heating and Air Conditioning system. High humidity levels make normally comfortable temperatures in the low 69’s think uncomfortably warm and sticky. Technology in newer A/C systems allow you to monitor humidity levels in every room of your beach cabin and think cool and comfortable, maintaining a humidity level of 40-50%, will allow you to save money on your energy bills each week. Checking crawlspaces to make sure they are well ventilated, using exhaust fans in bathrooms and family rooms, and venting your clothes dryer to the outside will reduce moisture and humidity inside of your home. Running a dehumidifier in your beach cabin may also benefit you. Some A/C systems may have a dehumidifier built into it as well. Make sure you set your A/C fan to automatic instead of keeping it in the “on” position. When a fan is set to “on”, it re-humidifies the space by blowing air over a wet coil when the condenser cycles off. Some cabin plants such as boston ferns, can help with humidity at beach cabin by absorbing moisture in the air… Just by doing these few things, you can seriously decrease the amount of moisture and humidity in your beach cabin and save yourself money on your beach cabin energy bill as well.
