Kimberley notes on dehumidifiers
Kimberley rarely needs a dehumidifier all year, so choose a small unit for the damp bathroom, a basement or a stored-away room, and run it with a humidistat. Archives, museum stores and heritage buildings need steady humidity, which may call for a desiccant or a ducted system designed by an HVAC engineer. A unit that fits a cold room is better than one that ices up.
Damp and humidity in Kimberley
Kimberley is a dry, hot Northern Cape city on the edge of the Karoo and Kalahari, with very low rainfall, strong sun and cold winter nights. Outdoor humidity is low, so damp is a narrow problem: condensation in bathrooms and cold bedrooms in winter, rising damp in old Victorian and Edwardian houses and brick buildings around Belgravia, Kimberley North and the old CBD, and leaks when rare heavy storms hit tired roofs. Archives, museums, mine stores and heritage buildings need steady humidity, and humidifiers matter in the dry months. Suppliers are few, so Bloemfontein and Johannesburg firms help.
The requests we see from Kimberley usually come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: keeps a bedroom or lounge dry through winter and helps washing dry indoors without mould
- Insurers, assessors and restoration firms: adds a small unit to dry one room, a cupboard or a passage after a minor leak
- Builders, HVAC engineers and contractors: dries a freshly plastered bedroom or a snag-list room before the owner moves in
