Your Tomnaven hire questions
Which dehumidifier should I hire for damp and mould?
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 Tomnaven.

With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which keeps costs down. No need to leave it on full all day.
Is it better to hire or buy a dehumidifier?
Delivery is usually available around Tomnaven, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How quickly will it dry my room?
You'll often see the tank filling on day one. For lasting results, run it until the walls and air are properly dry — usually several days to a couple of weeks.
Does this stop mould coming back in Tomnaven?
