Frequently asked questions
How much does the Pro Breeze 10L Desiccant Dehumidifier cost to run?
At full power it uses 0.65 kWh an hour (typical): about 17.1p at the Ofgem price cap (26.32p/kWh). Typical use (8 hours a day) comes to around £41.06 a month.
Does a dehumidifier help with heating bills?
Indirectly: dry air feels warmer and heats up faster than damp air, and stopping condensation protects walls and windows from mould. Keep indoor humidity around 40–60 %.
