Moisture & air supplies in Pietermaritzburg: local notes
Old Pietermaritzburg cupboards and wardrobes with solid brick behind them trap damp, so calcium chloride tubs and hanging bags help cheaply. Winter fires and dust make some households look at air purifiers, and a humidity meter is a cheap check before you buy anything bigger. Silica gel packs suit tool boxes, camera gear and boxes of archive paper.
Pietermaritzburg: the weather, the buildings and the damp
Pietermaritzburg lies in a bowl of hills, with hot, wet summers and cool, drier winters, and the nearby Midlands above it are famous for mist. That mix means damp comes in two forms: muggy mould in summer and cold condensation in winter. The city has many old red brick Victorian and Edwardian buildings, in Scottsville, Pelham and the town centre, where solid walls and old plaster can stay damp low down. Student digs near the university, rental cottages and older office buildings all show it. The Midlands from Hilton to Howick has timber homes, cold bedrooms and plant growers, and Willowton and Mkondeni hold the industry.
Who asks for humidity meters around Pietermaritzburg, most often first:
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: meters in flats to show a tenant or an agent what the humidity really is
- Homeowners and tenants: a meter in the bedroom or lounge to see how damp it gets and set a dehumidifier
- Growers, nurseries and farms: meters in grow rooms and tunnels to follow humidity through the lights cycle
