Could you elaborate? Need some data to poke my mom about fixing all the broken ACs in the HK apartment.

I was looking at line item costs, after our rebuild from fire damage, for all the things that would take damage from humidity.
-
Long-term: wood floors, doors/door jambs, cabinets, etc. will warp and even if they don't *require* fix/replacement, value is lost.
-
Short-term: paint will deteriorate and chip/peel much faster with humidity (& esp changes in humidity). And of course mold/mildew.
-
Annual cost of AC for me is probably about $600 (obviously higher for you, but also more rapid damage from humidity).
-
Even if it took 10 years for paint to reach awful condition, having it done right would cost more than the $6000 spent on AC.
-
And on top of that you have damage to the wood floors (likely becoming squeaky from warping & impossible to fix without replacing).
-
Unfortunately the apartment already has very f*cked up paint and squeaky floors. It doesn't help how it's unoccupied 9+ months of the year.
