How much does it cost to run per day?
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 Brawlbin?

How long until I see a difference in Brawlbin?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Brawlbin can take a little longer. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.

Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Keep things dry and you stop it regrowing. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
