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 Corbiegoe.
How much does it cost to run per day?
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.

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 Corbiegoe?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Corbiegoe can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Does this stop mould coming back in Corbiegoe?
