Your Forest hire questions
What size dehumidifier do I need in Forest?
Go for a compressor (refrigerant) unit with a good extraction rate and, if possible, continuous drainage. Tell us the room size and we'll match the right model for Forest.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
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 hiring worth it for a homeowner?
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 Forest straight away.
How many days should I hire one for?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Forest can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Does this stop mould coming back in Forest?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Hold the humidity down and you stop it regrowing. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
