The split-sytem idea seems like a good one. I don't think ductless
would work because my house has 2 floors and ductwork would be needed to
circulate
the air well. Maybe one can use the house heater fan for the AC and not
have to get a separate fan?
I do want something that's a dehumidifier as well as AC, because often
it's damp here and not hot - the other day it was 67 F and 72% humidity.
So I need to be able to turn on a dehumidifying function separately from
the AC.
No, I haven't asked this before. Looking on google I'd found some models
of central AC advertised as quiet, about 65 dB (meaning dBA I guess).
Those are probably for a larger house than mine, and maybe I could find a
quieter one. It would be in my garage. The heater fan is in my
garage, it is about 50 dBA and that's plenty loud, the garage is next to
my
living space. I suppose the compressor the main noise you get from an AC,
the fan noise is not so bad.
thanks
