Do you need a dehumidifier? Here’s why yes

This is the best time of year to purchase a device that removes moisture. So, grab a dehumidifier today!

The easiest way to eliminate excess moisture in the atmosphere is with a dehumidifier.

Our homes may be more vulnerable to damp due to the high energy prices and the cost-of-living crisis. Our homes can still feel the cold, even if we put on extra layers to keep warm. Wet weather, wet activities such as drying clothes indoors or using the hob can make this worse.

WHY SHOULD A DEHUMIDIFIER BE BOUGHT?

Condensation can be a problem at this time of the year. If it isn’t addressed, then more serious problems like mould and mildew may occur. This issue can be addressed by purchasing a dehumidifier.

«Dehumidifiers lower the humidity level by sucking air into a room, removing moisture, and then blowing warm, dry air out again into the room,» says Chris Michael, the Managing Director at Meaco, UK’s top air purification specialist. This can reduce the humidity and allow central heating to run at a lower temperature, or even turn off.

A humidifier’s cost-efficiency is another reason to purchase one. The dehumidifier can help you keep your home warm and cozy for as long as you want.

Chris explains that dehumidifiers are as cheap as 8p an hour to run. To save energy, look for dehumidifiers with a laundry mode that allows the machine to run up to six hours before it switches off.

Based on the October 2022 price at 52p/kWh/hour, a dehumidifier capable of extracting 12 litres per day would cost just 8p an hour. A dehumidifier capable of extracting up to 20 litres per day at a wattage 480w would consume 0.48kWh. This would mean that an hour’s use would be just 25p.

You already know the advantages of a dehumidifier. But you can save even more by buying this winter-essential while it is still available. Because dehumidifiers have been so popular in the world this year, they are selling quickly. It’s a smart idea to grab one while they are still in stock.
