Farmhouses with damp problems
Feedback and commentary from our very first UK customer in connection with solving the damp problems in his old farmhouse expressed via his blog:
See Customer Blog. Quoting from the article: "Despite some longish periods of gloomy and wet weather there has been enough winter sunshine (for the SolarVenti) to maintain a dry fresh smelling atmosphere in my farmhouse. The sun is obviously much lower in the sky now and there are a couple of trees that block the sun for part of its trajectory. The distant trees that I thought might be a problem are not! They have shed all of their leaves and the sun shines through the trees albeit at slightly lower power response from the Solarventi fan unit. Nevertheless the very effective drying ability of the Solarventi is powerfully in evidence in the whole of the downstairs of the house not just the utility kitchen area."
Another old farmhouse with damp issues:
"I am very pleased with the unit which i use for venting and drying the lowest floor."
Nick orchard.
Damp Narrowboats
A letter from one of the first customers to fit a SolarVenti SV2 to cure damp in their narrowboat.
"I am writing to express our great satisfaction with the SolarVenti solar powered dehumidifier, which you fitted to our narrow boat last September.
We left the boat and the dehumidifier unattended for seven and a half months over winter from 1 September until we returned to the boat from New Zealand on 22 April.
The boat was wonderfully dry, and everything in it was fresh. There was no smell of mustiness anywhere. When we were on board we noticed a slight rise in temperature whenever the sun was shining on the panel.
We consider that this is an important asset for anyone who leaves a boat unattended for long periods to have, and we have already recommended it to several people we have met on the canal since we set off.
We are also very grateful for the effort you made to have the device fitted before we left last year.
Once again many thanks.
Kind regards,"
Jim and Dawn Wardle (nb Pukeko)
Another happy narrowboat owner:
"Our boat is now nice and fresh all the time. The soft furnishings were left in the boat over winter and stayed fresh and usable just as we were promised. It was pleasant to get back in the boat at the start of the season without the need for a major spring clean."
D Bulbeck - Narrowboat owner.
Holiday properties
Comments from happy holiday cottage owners:
"We bought a SolarVenti for our cottage in Wales. It has been fantastic for us. Previously there was always a constant musty smell and it (SV) has completely cleared the damp. All patches of mould have completely cleared."
Sue and Bob.
"Best £500 investment I've made to date. I can now strongly recommend
one to anyone with a dank spot in the house, a cellar, or north facing
wall, or condensation plagued cupboards."
Tanya Lees.
You can read about Tanya's SolarVenti experience on her fascinating blog about her old property with no electricity and no mains water, the 'Stone Caravan', as she calls her remote Northumbrian hideaway.
She contemplates her purchase:- Should I buy a SolarVenti?
Initial reactions:- Lets hope it has worked.
Secondary reaction on the SolarVenti's effectiveness:- It Works Fantastically!
Houses, damp basements & cellars
Here's a review of a SolarVenti SV3 used to dehumidify and ventilate a basement on a house in Ross-on-wye. Written by owner of the property and friend and colleague Peter Martin, instigator of the brilliant re-use and re-cycle site www.junkk.com. See SolarVenti review.
Damp houses and Heat Energy savings
Quotes from one of the UK's first SV30 users in East Anglia.
"We have an Edwardian cottage (built 1901), & we were struggling to keep it
warm & dry without running up huge electricity bills. Our other major problems being, condensation on the windows & the house
being cold, indoors, even on the hottest of summer days.
We chose solarventi as we could see its potential in helping solve our
problems.
Despite only installing it in November, we have been amazed how it has
utilised the small amount of sunlight we have had, & how much warmth it has
generated.
We look forward with absolute confidence, to a warmer next summer 'indoors'! & we are sure, because of its' performance so far, that given 12 months use, it will dry out the cottage & our heating bills will gradually be reduced. A plus for us & a plus for the environment."
Ann Coe.
"Since fitting the SolarVenti SV30 our heating costs have decreased dramatically. We have night storage heaters and since deploying the SolarVenti unit, we have been able to turn down the heater controls by 50%, even during winter. So not only are the units cost-effective, but it is also reducing our carbon footprint and helping protect the environment.
The unit was incredibly easy to install and the customer service we have received from the SolarVenti team has been exceptional. It really is a true fit-and-forget solution". John Coe. (11 weeks after installation).
Heating savings comment
"I've had the unit for exactly 470 usable hours since I got it and have been surprised at the 25 degree temperature gain for the incoming fresh air. I have been able to turn the heating down a few notches since I got it."
Len Maxwell.
Helping to preserve an old organ
"We installed the SV7 unit in November 2007 and it has been a great success. We live in a converted chapel and want to conserve the old church organ. We suffered enormous heating bills and still had 95% humidity in winter. With SolarVenti we have got it down to a comfortable 55% and are very satisfied with it. It has been a terrific success."
David Sanger.
Park Homes and damp issues
A letter from a SolarVenti SV3 user with a Park Home living in Staffordshire:
"Just a short note to say how delighted I am with my new SolarVenti SV3.
The humidity in the bedroom has always been over 80% and even when I put the mains electric dehumidifier in there I couldn’t get it below 70%.
After just a few sunny days last week the SolarVenti had it down to 38%! And I really got the room ‘dried out’. Even now after several days of snow and rain the humidity is still well below 70%.
Thank you very much for your excellent product."
Bob Hickmott.
Comment from a Park Home owner with damp issues.
"We live in a park home and suffered damp problems in the bedroom. We are very impressed with SolarVenti. It has been a tremendous help in banishing the dampness and are very happy with it."
P. Marsden
Large Park Home previously with damp and mildew issues:
"I am just ecstatic with it (SV14) - I am usually very picky but within 1 day the atmosphere was completely transformed and the musty smells were gone."
Mrs Gallop
Properties with 'Cold House Syndrome'
This customer had lived with cold house syndrome prior to installing SolarVenti as part of a campaign to dry his house out. Symptoms even included mould on the walls.
"SolarVenti has been an integral part of getting the house dry. It has made a huge difference to the atmosphere of the house which has been transformed. Drawers now open smoothly in the furniture."
Tony Grice - Cambridgshire.
