Your Dalby hire questions

Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
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.
Is it better to hire or buy a dehumidifier?

How quickly will it dry my room?
You'll often see the tank filling on day one. For lasting results, run it until the walls and air are properly dry — usually several days to a couple of weeks.
