Just get a dehumidifier and leave the fan blower on all the time.
Place the dehumidifer near one of the registers. Cheap and easy. When
unit needs to be replaced next, then get the proper size. I would not
change ducts, you should be able to do what you want by changing the
fan motor speed.


Reducing a duct in place is easy, all you need to do is put solid foam
insulation in the duct to reduce the cross sectional area. This may require
disassembly of certain sections to gain access.

Increasing the duct size would require replacement

Just try the slower fan first and see if it works berore you get too worried
about air velocity vs volume. Another posters suggestion about reducing the
airflow at the condensor also sounds reasonable (inexpensive and reversable
if it dosen't work)

Reducing the size of the registers or closing some dampers would have some
effect as well.
