    Air conditioning does remove humidity down to acceptable levels but
    it must run over a period of time. If the air conditioner runs and
    cools the area down too quickly it will not remove humidity and might
    even make it worse.

    Commercially what's done is called "terminal reheat" where the
    cooled air is reheated again. If you look closely at the
    dehumidifiers that are sold for residential use you can see that the
    heat is dumped back into the air stream. A dehumidifier may be the
    best solution for you, it all depends on the temperature, humidity
    level, and area you want controlled.
