You're A/C unit works to remove heat from the passenger area and in doing so it also removes moisture. We are most comfortable when the relative humidity is closer to 20 percent than 90 percent, therefore the A/C system expends most of its effort wringing moister out of the air. This is what air conditioning is all about - conditioning the air. It's important to check the condensation drain at the bottom of the evaporator.

McCullough’s comfort consultant will measure your home and calculate the actual heating & cooling load on the home (calculation using Manual J v8 that incorporates information about window size & direction, walls, ceiling, floor, appliances, insulation, etc).

A pump circulates water from the reservoir on to a cooling pad, which in turn becomes very wet. A fan draws air from outside the unit through the moistened pad. As it passes through the pad the air is cooled by evaporation. The key to effective evaporative cooling is ensuring that each of the cooling pads are completely saturated at all times during operation and that the systems fan & motor are sized and designed to deliver the appropriate airflow for the home.

Really the only maintenance it needs is to keep the filter behind the return air grill is cleaned once a month. Also check the seawater strainer at least daily when the system is in use.
