High Humidity Indoors Despite a Working AC in Clayton
What the customer reported
A Clayton homeowner reported that the humidity was high in the home and wanted to find out the reason.
What we found and did
The system was cooling properly, but it does not have a dehumidification function, so it only dehumidifies while it is running, and because the home is well insulated the system does not run enough to pull out the moisture. Dexter, Nick, and Jeorell inspected the roughly 4-5 year old system and checked to confirm the unit was cooling. They then explained to the homeowner how run time affects indoor humidity and why keeping the fan on will increase humidity.

System Inspections in Clayton: questions answered
Answered by our licensed technicians serving Clayton.
How often should I have my HVAC system inspected?
We recommend a professional inspection at least once per year. Ideally, have your heating system checked in fall and your cooling system checked in spring, before each season of heavy use.
What is the difference between an inspection and a tune-up?
An inspection is a diagnostic evaluation that identifies problems and rates system health. A tune-up includes the inspection plus hands-on maintenance like cleaning, lubricating, and adjusting components. We offer both.
Can an inspection help me decide whether to repair or replace my system?
Yes. Our inspection report includes an efficiency rating and remaining useful life estimate, giving you the data you need to make an informed repair-vs-replace decision.
Do you inspect ductwork as part of a system inspection?
Yes. We measure static pressure, check accessible duct connections for leaks, and evaluate overall duct design. For a full duct assessment, we also offer dedicated ductwork inspections with airflow testing.
Will the inspection disrupt my home?
No. A standard HVAC inspection is non-invasive and typically completed in 60 to 90 minutes. We work cleanly and will not disassemble anything without discussing it with you first.
