RDWC humidity

I finally got my whole room setup with RDWC and I'm struggling with humidity now. My 70 pint unit can't keep up with the levels and thus runs all the time. Anybody have suggestions on a dehumidifier for these types of setups?

how's your exhaust set up?

Is it just a tent inside of a room, and you're just recycling the air in the room? <--- This will give you problems.

You need to be exchanging fresh air. Hook up to a window or some ducting that leaves the room. It should help a bit.
Running AC will also dry out the air.
 
I'm running a sealed room with 4k watts. I have my lights exhausted in a closed system. I have a 10k btu split unit ac. My 70 pint unit just works all day. These plants are giving off so much more water than the soil did. I wonder if I should just get expensive dehumidifier that can battle the water.

What are your temps like? 10k btu seems a bit small for a 4kw room. A bigger ac would dehumidify more and let you run a bigger dehu without heat issues, if you still needed to.
