What to know locally in Cape Town
Winter is when home units in Cape Town sell out, so buy or hire before the first cold snap if you can. A bedroom or lounge in Woodstock, Observatory, Claremont or the Cape Flats usually calls for a mid-size compressor unit, with laundry mode a useful extra, while cold garages and basements suit desiccant models. Commercial buyers in Epping and Montague Gardens look at large units for warehouses.
Cape Town: the weather, the buildings and the damp
Cape Town's winters, roughly May to August, are cool and wet, and many homes get damp and mould then. Old Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Salt River, Edwardian houses in Observatory and Claremont, cottages in Kenilworth and Newlands, and low-cost homes on the Cape Flats all hold moisture in cold, shut rooms. Drying washing indoors adds a lot of water vapour, and the south-easter is a summer wind, so winter windows often stay closed. Seafront flats in Sea Point and Bantry Bay get salt air. Industry in Paarden Eiland, Epping and Montague Gardens, plus the docks, needs dry storage, and the market is full of suppliers.
Typical industrial dehumidifiers requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: dries a large basement, a double garage or a wine cellar that a home unit cannot manage
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: dries the parking basement or common areas of a block where condensation drips onto cars
- Warehouses, archives and storage: keeps stock, packaging and racking dry and stops condensation on a cold concrete floor
