Why a dehumidifier in the basement is indispensable

Because cellars are under the ground and often have little ventilation, moisture easily pulls in through walls and floors. This can lead to mold, a musty scent and damaged items. A damp basement also attracts vermin, such as silverfish and mold. With a dehumidifier you lower the humidity and prevent these problems, without having to work on it continuously.

How do you choose the right dehumidifier for your basement?

Not every dehumidifier is suitable for a basement. Because the humidity here is often high and the temperature can be lower than in other spaces, you should pay attention to the following:

• Capacity: the larger the basement and the more damp the space, the more powerful the device must be.
• Drainage options: Choose a model with a continuous discharge option if you don't feel like always emptying the water reservoir.
• Suitable for low temperatures: some dehumidifiers work less well at lower temperatures. Choose a model that remains effective, even in colder cellars.
• Automatic moisture control: A dehumidifier with a built -in hygrometer automatically switches on and off to keep the humidity optimal.

What does a dehumidifier deliver?

With a dehumidifier for the basement you not only solve moisture problems, but you also prevent future damage. This means:

• No more mold or damp spots.
