How a dehumidifier works in Foxup

Common questions in Foxup

Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which keeps costs down. No need to leave it on full all day.
Is hiring worth it for a homeowner?
Delivery is usually available around Foxup, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How quickly will it dry my room?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Foxup can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Does this stop mould coming back in Foxup?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Keep things dry and you break the cycle. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
