Your Burgate hire questions
What size dehumidifier do I need in Burgate?
For a cold or unheated room, choose a compressor model rated for low temperatures and matched to the room size. Skip the little moisture absorbers — they're too small for a genuinely damp room in Burgate.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
It depends on the model and how long it runs, but you're typically looking at a few pence to around £1 of electricity per day of use.
Can you deliver to Burgate?
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 Burgate?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Burgate can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
