So, my only concern is, and this depends on the size of the A/C unit, how 'cold' it will make it. If you can keep the temp at 70 and above and your humidity is down around the 35-45% range, you've killed two birds with one stone. If the humidity is still too high, rather than making the room colder than 70F, I suggest you get a half of an air conditioner, called a dehumidifier!
