Holiday Cottage, Properties: eliminating damp, condensation, mildew with warm air ventilationWhether you own a small chalet, a static caravan, a holiday cottage or even a huge villa in Spain, the biggest problem is that you cannot be there all the time to ensure that your holiday home is kept warm, dry and adequately ventilated so that it remains free from damp and mildew.

Cottage smells damp on arrival
We all know the situation when you first visit your holiday cottage (or any other type of holiday property) after the winter months. You unlock the doors and walk in to be greeted by that stale, musty dank atmosphere. What's your first reaction? Ventilation! You open up all of the cottage doors and windows to get some clean fresh air into the place. Then you walk into the kitchen area and are dismayed to see that small black mould and mildew patches have appeared all over the walls and tiles, so your next job is a major cleaning exercise, followed by a similar cleaning exercise in the bathroom. Then you make yourself a cup of tea and decide to sit and relax for a while, but find that the half bag of sugar that you left in the kitchen cupboard has turned into a lump of rock. Finally, you actually do sit down, only to realise that your sofa and all the cushions smell musty and damp. All of this caused by damp in the cottage arising through absence of dry air ventilation.

Solving the damp cottage smell problem
If this sounds familiar, then a SolarVenti dehumidifier ought to be your ventilation solution of choice. Simply using the power of the sun, your holiday cottage or other style of property can get fresh, dry, warmed air pumped through every time the sun shines when it is unoccupied. Because a SolarVenti dehumidifier invokes ventilation only when the sun shines you ensure that the air you are drawing into your property is drier. This solar controlled ventilation banishes damp, condensation, mould and mildew.
