KwaZulu-Natal notes on moisture & air supplies
Absorber tubs and hanging bags are used constantly along the coast in wardrobes, cars, boats and holiday flats, and fill with liquid quickly in humid months. Anti-mould paint goes on bathroom ceilings in Durban flats. Silica gel and container desiccants protect cargo leaving the port. Hay fever sufferers in Pietermaritzburg look at purifiers, and a <a href="/humidity-meters/">humidity meter</a> helps check a flat before you buy.
Damp and humidity in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal is the most humid province, and the coast from Port Shepstone through Durban and Umhlanga to Ballito and Richards Bay is warm and damp for much of the year, peaking in the summer months. Mould shows up on cupboards, shoes, leather, bathroom ceilings and the underside of mattresses in beachfront flats and older homes in Morningside, Berea and Glenwood. Inland, Pietermaritzburg and the Midlands are cooler and misty, with cold, wet houses in winter. Durban's port, the Richards Bay terminals, sugar mills, food plants and logistics parks around Pinetown and Cato Ridge make industrial humidity a daily concern, and many suppliers and hire firms are based in Durban.
The requests we see from KwaZulu-Natal usually come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: canisters in gun safes, camera cabinets and boxes of documents and keepsakes
- Warehouses, archives and storage: sachets in packaged stock and strips in containers and sealed bins
- Hotels, gyms, spas and pools: packs in safes and in stores of electronics and linen boxes
Local tips for KwaZulu-Natal
Common here: coastal flats and wardrobes, port and warehouse humidity, mould in rentals. Ask each supplier about this: ask whether the unit has a drain hose or pump, since coastal humidity fills a tank fast. Where they work from: durban, Pinetown, Pietermaritzburg, Umhlanga and Richards Bay.
Sizes vary: sachets to container strips. Here, homeowners and tenants lead the requests, typically for canisters in gun safes, camera cabinets and boxes of documents and keepsakes. One local point to raise: local crews in Durban and Pietermaritzburg; courier up and down the coast.
