Su rvive heat and damp with a dehumidifi­er

Why you need them and which one to buy

-

Now that summer is underway, there’s the risk of humidity and the health problems that causes. Air pollutants rise during such time, which can make allergies worse, aggravate already sensitive skin, cause headaches and prolong viruses. The air in your home is susceptibl­e to high humidity, so a dehumidifi­er could prove a wise investment. These devices draw moisture from the air, making them a godsend for damp houses. There are two main dehumidifi­ers: a refrigeran­t (known as a compressor) that works at higher temperatur­es and higher humidities, and desiccant dehumidifi­ers, suitable for garages and conservato­ries. Meaco and its 20L Low Energy Dehumidifi­er and Dyson’s Humidifier make excellent choices. T3
