What a dehumidifier does for Ham homes

Common questions in Ham
Which dehumidifier should I hire for damp and mould?
For a cold or unheated room, choose a unit suited to cool spaces and matched to the room size. Skip the little moisture absorbers — they're too small for a genuinely damp room in Ham.
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.
Can you deliver to Ham?
Delivery is usually available around Ham, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How many days should I hire one for?
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.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
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.
