I might even be able to afford to power this. It should cost about $15 / quarter to power. I like the idea of a drain hose going outside. I just ordered one so will let you know how it goes. |
Funny you should mention this Doug, as at the moment I'm running a dehumidifier over night tonight. My wife bought a small unit for a wardrobe but it worked so well she bought a really large unit. So I inherited the small unit and am running it now as I also wind up with a real excess of moisture after I shut the dome up which then condenses on all aluminum surfaces.
Already today in about an hour or so it has pulled out several hundred ml of water. Acnt do any harm. I'll let you know how it goes here in Brisbane.
