Ruth Jenkinson said: “I got a dehumidifier after we had a leak and ran it constantly for a month and was worried about the electricity bill, but it was about the same as the previous months.

Vikki Bruce chimed in: “Last winter we started using a dehumidifier. Clothes were dry within four hours costing us 84p, there was less ironing and our electricity bill dropped. They may be an expensive outlay but we certainly got our money back over the space of a few months.”
Daniel Attwater claimed: “Highly recommend dehumidifier! Didn’t notice our energy bill go up when using it all the time.”

Natalie Michelle praised: “Dehumidifier is brilliant! Only costs a few pence an hour to run and dries washing brilliantly.”
Karen Glover recommended: “Would recommend a dehumidifier, they’re game-changing. I have four airers close the door to the room and leave it on for around four hours overnight and the clothes are all dry by the morning and it never makes them smell bad.”
Caroline Oliver asserted: “Dehumidifier, you’d be surprised how much moisture you have in the house.”
Drying clothes indoors can be a real drag, especially when the air’s thick with humidity. However, popping a dehumidifier into the mix can change the game, sucking that pesky moisture right out of the air.
This nifty move means the water in your soggy socks and shirts has an easier time saying goodbye, speeding up the drying process.
As a bonus, it can also keep those weird musty smells at bay because no one wants their fresh laundry smelling like it’s been left in the rain.
