A heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC/R) system includes a cooling circuit including an evaporator to exchange thermal energy between a primary refrigerant flow and a secondary refrigerant flow reducing a temperature of the secondary refrigerant flow, a cooling heat exchanger to exchange thermal energy between the secondary refrigerant flow and an airflow through the cooling heat exchanger to reduce a temperature of the airflow, and a drain to remove condensate. A reheat circuit is located downstream of the cooling heat exchanger including an adsorber heat exchanger to adsorb the primary refrigerant flow, generating thermal energy. The generated thermal energy is transferred to a reheat refrigerant flow through the adsorber heat exchanger. A reheat heat exchanger exchanges thermal energy between the reheat refrigerant flow and the airflow to increase the temperature of the airflow, thereby lowering the relative humidity of the airflow.
