De-Humidify mode on cruiseair

[Bottom Line]

What happens if you leave the AC on when you are not on the boat, and the hose that runs from the seacock to the AC unit would spring a leak? :huh:

More or less the same thing that would happen if you didn't manually close all the seacocks even without the AC operating. The bilge pumps are wired straight to the batteries for a reason. And this is also why you should have a mental picture of what your bilge areas look like. If they're "different" then your pumps are running and unless you want it sunk you need to find out why and stop it.

The dehumidify mode works great. It keeps mold and condensation from wrecking the interior. While it does use some shore power, it doesn't run all the time. So it's not "peeing out the side" all the time, irritating that ragbagger two slips down and ratting you out to marina management...

I used to keep the A/C on at about 73 deg. ,being here in SoFla it is a MUST, but one day I went to check on the boat and the freakin A/C unit had frozen up and caused water seepage into the bunk.It must have happened within a day or so of me going there. I was lucky because if I would have taken any more time getting there since I had that stagnant water and the A/C unit froze up, it would have caused mold.
I asked MM what they suggested in order to avoid this in the future and they told me to use the dehumidifier option,I keep it at 75 deg. and thank the Lord I have not had any further issues. Chris
