Johannesburg notes on dehumidifiers
In Johannesburg most home buyers want a compressor unit for a bedroom or a laundry corner, mainly in the cooler months when washing will not dry outside. Rooms in older Melville and Parkview houses often sit cold, so ask how the unit copes below about 15 degrees. For paper and stock stores around City Deep and the CBD, castors, a drain hose and a humidistat matter more than raw litres a day.
Johannesburg: the weather, the buildings and the damp
Johannesburg sits high and dry for most of the year, so damp here is local rather than general. It shows up in the old brick houses of Melville, Parkview and Observatory, where a failed damp-proof course lets moisture creep up the lower walls, and in cold south-facing bedrooms in winter. Inner-city blocks in Berea and Braamfontein, student digs and crowded rentals add condensation from washing dried indoors. Basement parking and storage under Rosebank and Sandton blocks can stay clammy after summer storms. Suppliers, hire firms and damp contractors are spread across the metro, with warehouse stock in the industrial belts south and east of the CBD.
Who asks for bathroom dehumidifiers around Johannesburg, most often first:
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: reduces mould complaints in rental bathrooms where tenants keep the door and window shut
- Warehouses, archives and storage: helps a staff shower room or ablution block dry out between shifts
- Offices, schools and clinics: dries shower and changing rooms in an office or clinic that stay damp after use
Local tips for Johannesburg
Suppliers serving Johannesburg mostly work from here: industrial belts around City Deep, Jeppe and Wynberg, plus the northern suburbs. The jobs that come up most: mould removal in rentals, damp walls in old brick houses, archive and stock rooms. When you ask for quotes, ask whether the inspector finds the source of the damp or only treats the stains.
Around Johannesburg the largest group asking is landlords, agents and body corporates, which usually means reduces mould complaints in rental bathrooms where tenants keep the door and window shut. Before you agree to anything: fan first, a safe position, an electrician. Getting kit there: local firms cover the metro, longer drives to Soweto and the far north cost more.
