Pinetown notes on dehumidifiers
Factories and warehouses in New Germany and Westmead often look at large units on castors with a built-in pump, and some want ducted units fed into a packing hall. For houses in Pinetown, Queensburgh and Kloof, a mid-size home unit in a damp bedroom or study is the usual pick. Ask about noise if it will run at night in a small flat.
Damp and humidity in Pinetown
Pinetown sits in the hills a little inland from Durban, so it gets the same sticky summers but with a bit more cloud and valley mist on some mornings. Older brick houses in Pinetown proper, Moseley Park and Queensburgh often have damp lower walls and rooms that never see the sun on the south side. Further up the hill, Kloof and Hillcrest have big homes with timber floors and cupboards that smell musty. The industrial belt at New Germany and Westmead is full of factories and warehouses with stock that suffers from humid air, and Clermont and KwaDabeka have tightly built homes where condensation is a daily fight.
Typical home dehumidifiers requests in the area come from:
- Factories and food plants: dries a small packing room, a staff changing area or a control room
- Warehouses, archives and storage: protects a small storeroom or archive cupboard where a full industrial unit is too big
- Homeowners and tenants: keeps a bedroom or lounge dry through winter and helps washing dry indoors without mould
