A/C or de-humidifier?
Here in Florida, our brutal summer of heat and humidity is about to begin. My question is which is better, running the A/C or running a couple of dehumidifiers. I pay a flat fee for the electric hook...

my 2 cents. I have a degree in HVAC I worked a/c service for years. Its harder for your a/c unit to remove the moisture (humidity) than it is to change the air temp. Run the dehumidifiers you will find that your a/c will be able to keep up with the heat load if they're operating properly.
I believe the OP was asking an "either or" question about if a dehumidifier would keep him as comfortable as just the AC unit.
Just a dehumidifier will not work with Florida's high humidity AND high temperatures, especially along the coast.
