Your Balgray hire questions

Go for a compressor (refrigerant) unit with a good extraction rate and, if possible, continuous drainage. Give us the rough square metres and we'll match the right model for Balgray.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
Running costs stay reasonable: 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.
Can you deliver to Balgray?
Yes — to dry out a cellar or get through a damp spell, a few days' hire is often enough and costs far less than buying.
How long until I see a difference in Balgray?
It depends how wet things are: a damp room clears in days, while a flooded space in Balgray may need a week or more of continuous running.
Does this stop mould coming back in Balgray?
It's the practical fix while you sort any underlying issue: drop the humidity and the black spots in Balgray lose the damp they feed on.
