How a dehumidifier works in Edwardstone

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

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 Edwardstone straight away.
How long until I see a difference in Edwardstone?
It depends how wet things are: condensation clears in days, while drying-out works in Edwardstone may need a week or more of continuous running.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
A dehumidifier tackles the cause: the excess moisture mould needs to grow. Clean the existing mould off, then keep the air dry and it struggles to come back in Edwardstone.
