Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which controls the spend. No need to leave it on full all day.

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 quickly will it dry my room?
