Your Impington 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 Impington.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
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?
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?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Impington can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
A dehumidifier tackles the root: the excess moisture mould needs to grow. Clean the existing mould off, then keep the air dry and it struggles to come back in Impington.
