North West notes on moisture & air supplies
Because the air is dry for most of the year, <a href="/humidifiers/">humidifiers</a> matter in winter bedrooms and offices, while moisture absorbers do their job in closed holiday houses at Hartbeespoort and in built-in cupboards over summer. Dust is the other concern on gravel roads, so HEPA purifiers are popular. Silica gel keeps electronics, tools and spares dry in site containers and stores around Rustenburg and Brits.
Damp and humidity in North West
North West is mostly flat bushveld and farmland with low winter rainfall, so outdoor damp is not the issue. Trouble comes indoors: cold, unheated rooms in Mahikeng and Lichtenburg where breath and showers condense on outside walls, summer storms that find leaks in flat roofs and old tin, and the dams around Hartbeespoort and Brits, where holiday homes stand shut for weeks and go musty. Rustenburg's platinum belt and Klerksdorp's mining and engineering firms use workshops, stores and electrical rooms that need dry air, and maize and sunflower silos on the western plains want moisture control for stored grain. Suppliers are mostly in Rustenburg, Klerksdorp and Potchefstroom, with a lot of stock coming from Gauteng.
The requests we see from North West usually come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: canisters in gun safes, camera cabinets and boxes of documents and keepsakes
- Growers, nurseries and farms: packs in seed storage jars and in boxes of dry seed
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: packs left in a closed flat's safe or storage cupboard between tenants
