Sounds to me like your not as far off from the goal as you think. If the
swamper is outside on the ground and you intend to remove it then the duct
work from the swamper to the first register in the home can be removed.
Replace the furnace with a furnace and a "A" coil for the a/c.
Duct work can be larger for swampers than the a/c. I have seen homes in
Phoenix with 2 complete duct work systems so that the moist air does not
bother the "A" coil. I usually install a damper above the "A" and you
just
have to remember to change positions for the system running.

Ask around and find someone who has done several of these conversions.
Experience is the key.
Then add some insulation in the attic.



Thanks. I'll call around and see what they say. I really don't want to
be tearing up the slab, walls, roof
for this so we'll just see what's doable. I can't add insulation in the
attic cause there isn't one (flat roofed
house). I really just wanted to see if this was doable without major
construction/costs. Sounds like "maybe"
is the answer and my best bet is to get someone in here that knows what
they're doing!
Cheers,
