Running costs stay modest: a domestic unit often runs a few hours a day thanks to the built-in humidistat, which switches it off once the target humidity is reached.

Delivery is usually available around Aruadh, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How quickly will it dry my room?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Aruadh can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
