Everyday habits that help
- Open a window or use an extractor fan when cooking or showering.
- Keep lids on pans, and dry washing outdoors when you can.
- Leave a small gap behind furniture on cold external walls so air can move.
When to use a dehumidifier
If windows still stream, washing has to dry indoors, or rooms feel damp, a dehumidifier pulls moisture out of the air and makes a home feel fresher and easier to heat. The MeacoDry Arete One combines a dehumidifier and an air purifier, and comes from a well regarded UK brand. It is a larger appliance that needs floor space, so measure where it will live before buying.
