How do I clear a musty, damp room?
Ventilate, fix any obvious source of water, then run a properly sized dehumidifier. Within a few days the smell and the damp drop noticeably in Benderloch.
Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
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.
