Your Murkle 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 Murkle.
Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which keeps costs down. No need to leave it on full all day.
Can you deliver to Murkle?
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 Murkle straight away.
How many days should I hire one for?
You'll often see the tank filling on day one. For lasting results, run it until the walls and air are properly dry — usually a few days upwards.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
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.
