I'm referring to the fact that without drying the air in the basement first, I raised the relative humidity in the living space most likely close to 100% which made it nearly impossible to sweat. So I was exaggerating about the temperature rise as it is really just a 'conceived' rise in temperature. 75 degrees in 0% humidity feels like 69 degrees and 75 degrees at 100% humidity feels like 80 degrees. I'm thinking it was 85 degrees at 30% or 40% humidity that day so you can imagine how we felt when the humidity shot up quickly to 90% to 100 %
