Your Kew hire questions
How do I clear a musty, damp room?
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 Kew.
How much does it cost to run per day?
With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which controls the spend. No need to leave it on full all day.
Is it better to hire or buy a dehumidifier?
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 quickly will it dry my room?
It depends how wet things are: a damp room clears in days, while drying-out works in Kew may need a week or more of continuous running.
Does this stop mould coming back in Kew?
It's the practical fix while you sort any underlying issue: dry the air and the black spots in Kew stop spreading.
