Hi guys I recently moved into a 1930s bungalow on the Wirral , soon after moving in a realised the house is suffering from condensation, damp and relative humidity in the 80s ,I bought a Meaco dehumidifier and had it in the hallway but the noise drove me mad , it ran constantly and only got the humidity down to mid 60s , it never achieved a relative humidity 50% , I gave up on that idea and after loads of research I fitted a nuaire drimaster in the central hallway and although it freshens the air it’s also freezing and does not drop the high relative humidity, nuaire initially told me it would ,I have a humidistat fitted in the loft and if it’s 86% humidity outside the loft will be 83% and obviously this is getting blown into the house so I can’t see how it’s going to help my issue , I live by the book with regards to keeping humidity low all the boxes have been ticked and I still struggle , I also live alone , I’m just wondering would a mvhr system be better for me as regards to lowering humidity and making the air fresher or am I just going to have to live in a cold damp house with windows open all year round
