Will it push my electricity bill up?
It depends on the model and how long it runs, but you're typically looking at not much of electricity per day of use.
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 long until I see a difference in Newchurch?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Newchurch can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
