Indoor air in San Marcos tracks the season and the attic. San Marcos is hot and noticeably humid. Winters are mild, with occasional freezes that still shut down neglected heat. Humidity near the river corridor makes moisture control as important as the thermostat number.
San Marcos has campus rentals, older houses, and newer subdivisions on the edges. River-corridor humidity means an oversized system can hit the setpoint and still leave the house damp. Rentals add deferred maintenance: filters, drains, and contactors that should have been replaced a year ago.

Only if the rack seals and the blower can handle it. A thick filter that collapses or leaves gaps can make dust and airflow worse. We check the rack before changing the filter type.
Filtration and a sealed return help during Ashe juniper season. We will not promise that a single device eliminates cedar pollen. Keeping outdoor air leaks out of the return is the first step.
The system may be short-cycling, oversized, or low on airflow, so it is not running long enough to remove moisture. That is an equipment and duct diagnosis, not a thermostat setting.
