Klerksdorp: the weather, the buildings and the damp
Klerksdorp is a gold-mining and farming city in the North West, dry for much of the year with cold winter nights and hot summers that end in sharp storms. Damp is a seasonal and local problem: condensation in cold bedrooms in Jouberton and Alabama, rising damp in some older houses in Flamwood and Wilkoppies, and leaks when a flat roof or a gutter fails in a downpour. Mine workshops, stores, change houses and records rooms around Stilfontein and Orkney need dry air for tools, switchgear and paper. Local hire and HVAC firms handle most jobs, with help from Potchefstroom and Johannesburg.
Typical desiccant dehumidifiers requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: dries a cold garage, a cellar or a spare room that never warms up in winter
- Insurers, assessors and restoration firms: adds drying capacity in cold weather when a compressor unit would struggle
- Factories and food plants: holds a low, steady humidity in food, pharmaceutical or electronics process rooms
