Dehumidifiers

[North Wind]

Anyone using them in e.g. a garage to dry out wetsuits etc. particularly in the winter months?

Grateful for any insight or info into whether or not it works, best one, running costs etc.

I have one in my flat. it is expensive to run but it does work well. In my garage I just used some of those moisture absorbing crystals.

We drip dry the wetties over the bath for a few hours then hang them in spare room with dehumidifier and they dry out really quick. However that really slows if the room is not realitively dry and warm in general. So I guess its effectiveness depends on whether your garage is insulated etc

i use a dehumidifier and i find it works really well and getting the moisture out the air and although i have not got a wetsuit so cant comment on the drying of that but if i have it on in a room with some washing hanging on the radiator it dries very quickly without needing to put the radiator on
