to clarify, when I say upsize I don't mean put in a 4 ton unit instead of a 2. You are correct that such a jump would cause problems. In my case, each unit is about 1/2 ton larger than what conventional charts would recommend and includes a separate whole house dehumidification system. I also have large blower units. Initial cost is more expensive for the equipment, but it is also more comfortable. As far as heat strips, I'm surprised too that I haven't had a problem. I had the dehumidifier system installed and a few modifications done, but the rest of the system came with the home. When the units need replaced, I will have strips or dual fuel as a backup and would not recommend installing a system without a backup.
