Your Shenval hire questions

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 Shenval.
How much does it cost to run per day?
It depends on the model and how long it runs, but you're typically looking at a few pence to around £1 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 quickly will it dry my room?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Shenval can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
It's the practical fix while you sort any underlying issue: dry the air and the black spots in Shenval lose the damp they feed on.
