Running costs stay reasonable: 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 Newton Tracey?
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.
