I'll try to find out. I had never heard of this kind of thing before but recently I heard the HVAC guy I go to telling a customer of mine about this. I haven't had the chance to talk to him about it yet though. I can't understand how it would work but he told them that they could run the dehumidifier with their 97% efficient Munchkin they use for radiant heat.

BTW that HVAC guy is a genius. Recently he told me that 18 years ago he built the geothermal heat pumps at the local co-op from air conditioners, AC_Hacker style. He said he could convert a minisplit to geothermal for me but I don't need to bother since the new ASHP's are going to eviscerate the geothermal market.
