What a dehumidifier does for Westgate Hill homes

How much does it cost to run per day?
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?
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 long until I see a difference in Westgate Hill?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Westgate Hill can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Does this stop mould coming back in Westgate Hill?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Hold the humidity down and you stop it regrowing. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
