Stop mould before it starts – with a dehumidifier from Trotec

Mould in the home is often a problem. Whereas people of old used to grumble about their draughty abodes and grouse about inadequate insulation, today’s homeowners often make the mistake of casting out the Devil with Beelzebub and sealing their houses so well off from the outer world that although they don’t let the cold, wet air in, they don’t let the warm, moist air out either. This phenomenon quickly provides the ideal breeding ground for different kinds of mould and mildew, which thrive and flourish in damp and stagnant conditions.

Mould in the home is not only unsightly, it is dangerous too. Mould patches on walls or ceilings often spread out rapidly and develop unpleasant odours – in extremely bad cases, the biting, musty smell which is generally attributed to household mould can become so overpowering it even makes your eyes water. Mould spores are particularly aggressive, because they affect the respiratory system and trigger respiratory illnesses or other complaints and disorders. If left unchecked mould can also cause extensive damage to your property and possessions: valuable furniture, carpets, clothes, books, collections and tapestries all suffer to such an extent under the effects of mould that they can actually be rendered worthless. Mould can induce wood rot, which in turn can lead to structural damage to your property. In some particularly devastating and tragic cases when mould was on the rampage, whole families have had to leave everything behind and flee their houses in a last attempt to salvage their health, even at the cost of a once-loved home.

Mould should not be ignored. As a rule patches which are less than 1m² in size can be cleaned with special cleaning agents – and special clothing like gloves and masks! But mould has the habit of returning, not least of all because it is the symptoms and not the cause which are being fought.

One such cause is poor ventilation. Although there are many people who would believe that the onset or spread of mould is a sign of poor hygiene, it is much more a sign of poor airing. Bathrooms especially are prone to being affected by mould, because they are quite simply not given enough time to dry out. The moisture which ladens the air after a shower or hot bath condenses on the colder surfaces in the bathroom – like outer walls or ceilings – where it later becomes a damp spot, thus providing the breeding ground mentioned earlier.

So why not prevent mould from occurring in the first place? With a dehumidifier from Trotec.

Who needs a dehumidifier?

Dehumidifiers are not a luxury.

In fact, more often than not they are a necessity.

Dehumidifiers have a number of important functions – not only do they create a healthy and comfortable room climate, they also ensure that required relative humidity levels are maintained in production and storage facilities. In addition, they provide effective and reliable non-stop protection against moisture and corrosion wherever they are put into operation – in the home, the office, the workplace.

But what does a dehumidifier actually do? Well, a dehumidifier reduces the relative humidity in the surrounding air. What it does basically is extract excess moisture from the air. The moisture is then contained in the dehumidifier and collected in a tank or drained off via a hose which can be attached to an outlet at the bottom of the unit. If left unchecked, this moisture could seriously damage not only your health but also your prized possessions and your property.

Although dehumidifiers come in all shapes and sizes, the principle is nearly always the same: a built-in hygrostat constantly monitors and controls the relative humidity and automatically switches the unit off when the selected thresholds have been reached and on again when the relative humidity either drops below these values or exceeds them.

These preset values are sometimes a matter of individual taste – as with the room temperature, some like it hot and some like it cold. Most people, however, feel most comfortable when the relative humidity is within the climate corridor recommended by most medical experts. This band normally lies between 40 and 60% (depending on the room temperature and the time of year) – the air is neither too dry nor too moist.

The effects of humid air can be extremely disconcerting. Mould and mildew thrive in damp conditions. This can lead to a variety of health problems and allergic reactions which can be especially dangerous to young children, pregnant women, elderly people or people or with weakened immune systems. In addition, many insects, like moths and cockroaches, use damp patches which form in corners or nooks and crannies as a result of excess moisture in the air as a breeding ground for their larvae. And as if this were not enough corrosion normally sets in when the relative humidity is higher than 60%.

Wouldn’t it make sense then to think about a means of preventing such conditions from developing in the first case? Conditions which not only pose a health threat but also put your valuable possessions like archives, private libraries, paintings, furniture and collections at risk.

The answer is as simple as it is straightforward: a dehumidifier. TROTEC has a wide range of versatile, effective and reliable dehumidifiers all designed to allow you to create your own indoor climate and control the relative humidity in your environment while filtering out airborne contaminants like dust, fluff and pet hairs and keeping the air that you breathe clean.

You will be hard-pushed to find a finer selection of large-scale, low-cost stationary models or compact, exquisitely-designed mobile units.
