Your Horton 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. Tell us the room size and we'll match the right model for Horton.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which controls the spend. No need to leave it on full all day.
Can you deliver to Horton?
Yes — to dry out a cellar or get through a damp spell, a few days' hire is often enough and costs far less than buying.
How many days should I hire one for?
It depends how wet things are: a damp room clears in days, while drying-out works in Horton may need a week or more of continuous running.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
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.
