What Causes Excess Sweating?

I am 61y.o., in good physical shape, but I sweat excessively. Cleaning house,( vacuuming,mopping,dusting) and even doing laundry , sweat runs down my face and my hair gets wet. I expect it when working outside in 90 degree heat , but not in the house with a/c going. What s up?
