Dehumidifiers in Potchefstroom: local notes
In Potchefstroom, landlords of student digs often ask for small compressor units with a humidistat, a washable filter and a tank-full cut-off, so tenants do not have to manage them. Homeowners in the older suburbs use medium units in lounges and bedrooms. Farm and grain stores around town need bigger wheeled units, sometimes desiccant ones for cold mornings. Ask the supplier for litres a day at a cool, not hot, temperature.
Damp and humidity in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and farming town on the Mooi River where tree-lined old suburbs sit beside student digs, flats and newer estates. Winters are cold, dry and frosty; summers bring heavy thunderstorms. Older houses in the central suburbs and Die Bult often have damp-proof courses that are missing or bridged by paving, so rising damp shows on lower walls. Student rooms around the campus suffer condensation and mould when windows stay shut and washing dries indoors. Grain and farm stores, small factories and offices round off demand. Suppliers are local, with extra from Klerksdorp and Johannesburg.
The requests we see from Potchefstroom usually come from:
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: keeps rental flats from growing black mould on walls and cupboards, so tenant complaints stop
- Insurers, assessors and restoration firms: dries walls, floors and contents after a burst geyser, a roof leak or a flood
- Hotels, gyms, spas and pools: removes damp smells and condensation in guest rooms, spa rooms and gyms
