How many kids,

3 kids, plus myself and my wife.

no bath vent fan, put one in. there is a big part of
your problem.

Kitchen vent fan? no. but usually just need it when water is boiled.


Does your furnace use outside air.
No it doesn't, can it be made to use outside air? it has a central A/C in
with it will that effect the A/c in the summer?

Does your drier vent outside.
Yes it does.

Attic vent size is determined by sq ft of attic, a ranch has alot of sq
ft.
Leave basement insulation.
A vent recovery system i think they are called, or air exchange system
brings in fresh air and warms it through a heat exchanger so you dont
waist energy as if you opened a window . some dehumidify .
Dry sinuses, maybe you need more air exchanges in the house,
This was just with the dehumidifier in the house not in the basement.



Check your humidistat for accuracy and get another one.


thanks,
