A musty smell is often caused by high humidity, which allows mould and microorganisms to grow. By dehumidifying the air, you reduce the risk of both odours and damp damage.
Desiccant dehumidifiers are designed to work effectively even when the temperature approaches 0°C and are therefore well suited to garages, holiday homes, boats and other cold spaces. Wood’s SW series works effectively down to +2°C, so this model is also well suited to lower temperatures.
When the temperature fluctuates, condensation forms on cold surfaces. If the humidity is high for prolonged periods, this can lead to mould, rust and unpleasant odours.
Moisture easily accumulates in unheated buildings, creating a musty, stale smell. A dehumidifier reduces the risk of odours and mould.
A dehumidifier can keep the humidity stable even when the house is empty.
Yes, some dehumidifiers are designed to work even at low temperatures.
