Your Latheron 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. Tell us the room size and we'll match the right model for Latheron.
How much does it cost to run per day?
Running costs stay modest: a domestic unit often runs a few hours a day thanks to the built-in humidistat, which switches it off once the target humidity is reached.
Can you deliver to Latheron?
Delivery is usually available around Latheron, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How quickly will it dry my room?
It depends how wet things are: condensation clears in days, while a flooded space in Latheron may need a week or more of continuous running.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Keep things dry and you stop it regrowing. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
