Are your allergies playing up? Is condensation appearing on your windows? Has mould appeared on your walls or ceilings? All of these are signs that you need a dehumidifier at home. But if you've never owned one before, there are a few things to be aware of before you pick one.
I've been writing about home tech for over 20 years, and have been lucky enough to try out some of the best dehumidifiers around. Each one has been given a thorough road test in my draughty three-bedroom Victorian home, which has had more than its fair share of damp issues and therefore proves perfect to demonstrate how we test dehumidifiers.
