Gauteng notes on dehumidifiers
Highveld winters are cold, and a compressor unit loses capacity in a chilly room, so ask how the model performs below 15 °C or consider a desiccant unit for a garage or an unheated spare room. In flats in Sandton, Rosebank and Hatfield a quiet bedroom unit with a humidistat is the usual pick. Warehouses along the N1 and R21 often want a larger unit on castors with a drain pump.
Why damp turns up in Gauteng
Gauteng is dry for most of the year, so damp here is usually a local problem rather than a climate one. Winter mornings on the Highveld are cold, and unheated bedrooms, north-facing garages and bathrooms without extractor fans collect condensation and black mould in the corners. Summer thunderstorms then find the weak spots: flat roofs, parapets and old brick walls in Parktown, Melville, Observatory and Pretoria's older suburbs. The province also holds the country's densest cluster of warehouses, archives, pharmaceutical stores and food plants, from Midrand and Kempton Park to Germiston and Waltloo, where humidity control is a business matter. Most suppliers and hire firms are based around Johannesburg and Pretoria.
