Well I ordered a dehumidifier. Went to turn the AC on and the digital thermostat batteries were dead. Went to town and picked up batteries and mold killer. Installed batteries in thermostat and it still didn't even come on. Just my luck! Not going back to town, so I ordered a thermostat. Also spent this afternoon spraying mild and wiping clean.
Most of y'all seem to recommend running AC/ HEAT year round? Will the dehumidifier alone not prevent mold? Would running ceiling fans help without AC? I have limited income. Not looking to increase my monthly power bill ~$250 if I can help it.
Maybe I should consider renting it, but I'm afraid I would find somebody that trashes the house instead of caring for it. Idk
A properly sized AC that is functioning well in a properly insulated house will prevent mold without a dehumidifier.
