You may have it confused with a swamp cooler. The heat exchanger efficiency may be affected by humidity increase/decrease but heat will be removed regardless. I built something very similar, check out http://www.gmilburn.ca/ac Yes, this will certainly work in areas with high humidity. You may have it confused with a swamp cooler.

Higher humidities will prevent this from working. The reason is that a larger ac unit actually dehumidifies the air to help change the temperature of the air. It takes more energy to change the air temperature one degree with high humidity then low humidity. This will work only in a low humidity area of the world.
