Hello,
Stu, I`ve been ignored all my life ..what do you think I`m doing on here? ..Ha Ha
John, The laundry (clothes that release water vapour into the
confines of a building), an appliance for the removal of said
vapour is the bit of bit of high tech kit what I am a`testing of.
This dehumidifier has a dessicant (10" diameter) air filter
which rotates periodicly to centerfuge the misture it collects from the
through put of air from a circulating fan. No coolant (or compreesor) is
required, hence high efficency and lower noise level. It will be
permanent timed and plumbed, I will sleep easier at night when it is
installed.
I am trying to enlighten a tenant of mine about preserving the
structure of a property that she rents from me. Her misguided current
solution to himidity control is to take her washing in to he lounge, put
clothes in front of fire, turn on the heat, then close the doors and
windows. The current duhumidifier is not in this room, but is where the
washer / drier, heater, and clothes airier was.
This practise over the last winter has brought about the expansion
(and buckling) of a hardwood decorative window cill, window seat,
various wood panels, and discolouration / staining to a fire. This is
the same woman who turned the bathroom into a WET ROOM by having a
shower without using the shower curtain! ... result, 1/4 inch of water
flowed under washing machine, she didin`t dry it out, 15 month old
washer/dryer machine circuit p.c.b. received condensation from below,
bang! .. electrons flowing everywhere. £150.00 for just the p.c.b.
alone. Not economic to repair! ... shall I tell you about the immersion
timer? .. nah ..it`s still a painful memory ..
Well that`s my whinge for the month over, everybody o.k.? ..catch you later
