A practical dehumidifier (10 litres/day) for keeping humidity down and preventing mould and condensation.
The Best Dehumidifiers for Damp in the UK (2026)
Persistent damp causes musty smells, peeling paint and mould. A dehumidifier tackles the cause by pulling moisture out of the air, rather than masking it. For damp problems, extraction rate and continuous running matter most.
What to look for
- A higher extraction rate for serious or whole-home damp.
- A humidistat so it holds a healthy humidity (around 45 to 55%) automatically.
- Continuous drainage so it can run unattended in the worst-affected room.
- The right type - compressor for heated rooms, desiccant for cold, damp garages.

Frequently asked questions
What humidity should I aim for?
Around 45 to 55% relative humidity is comfortable and discourages mould and dust mites. A humidistat lets you set and hold that automatically.
Where should I put it?
In the dampest room, with doors and windows closed, and some clearance around the air intake and outlet. Move it between problem rooms if needed.
