Your Heogan hire questions
Which dehumidifier should I hire for damp and mould?
Go for a compressor (refrigerant) unit with a good extraction rate and, if possible, continuous drainage. Give us the rough square metres and we'll match the right model for Heogan.
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 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 Heogan straight away.
How quickly will it dry my room?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Heogan can take a little longer. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
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.
