Damp & condensation

Black mould

Common questions in Nottingham
How do I clear a musty, damp room?
For a cold or unheated room, choose a compressor model rated for low temperatures and matched to the room size. Skip the little moisture absorbers — they're too small for a genuinely damp room in Nottingham.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
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 Nottingham?
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 Nottingham straight away.
How long until I see a difference in Nottingham?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Nottingham can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
A dehumidifier tackles the root: the excess moisture mould needs to grow. Clean the existing mould off, then keep the air dry and it struggles to come back in Nottingham.
