Your Weston Subedge hire questions
What size dehumidifier do I need in Weston Subedge?
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 Weston Subedge.
Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
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 many days should I hire one for?
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.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Hold the humidity down and you break the cycle. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
