Common questions in The Chequer
What size dehumidifier do I need in The Chequer?
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 The Chequer.
How much does it cost to run per day?
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.
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 many days should I hire one for?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in The Chequer can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Keep things dry and you break the cycle. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
