Your Toll of Birness hire questions
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 Toll of Birness.

With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which controls the spend. No need to leave it on full all day.

Can it help with mould on the walls?
