Your Craichie hire questions
How do I clear a musty, damp room?
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 Craichie.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
It depends on the model and how long it runs, but you're typically looking at not much of electricity per day of use.
Can you deliver to Craichie?
If the need is short-term, hiring is the smarter move: no expensive unit sitting idle afterwards, and you get the right model for the problem in Craichie straight away.
How long until I see a difference in Craichie?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Craichie can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
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.
