Rent a construction dryer in Munich? Strobl and klarx offer construction dryers for rent – available at short notice in Munich
For over 20 years, Strobl has been renting out construction dryers, dehumidifiers, air conditioning units, air purifiers, fans and heaters. This year, Strobl and klarx have expanded their partnership: from now on, construction dryers from Strobl are available for rent at klarx's logistics center in Munich Sendling. This means customers in and around Munich can now rent construction dryers even faster. Both self-pickup at the logistics center and delivery are available at any time.
How long does a construction dryer need to run?
When renting a construction dryer, it's important to know: how long does it take to dehumidify a room? And how long does a wall need to dry after water damage?
The required operating time of a construction dryer depends on room size, indoor temperature and, for example, the severity of water damage. Often an estimate of at least two to four weeks is used. Choosing the right construction dryer and good air circulation through fans in the room speed up the drying process. If damage resulted in standing water that affected floors and walls for an extended period, drying time can take up to twelve weeks.
How much water does a construction dryer remove?
How much water a room dehumidifier can remove from the air in a day is influenced by its power rating, but also by the ambient temperature and relative humidity. Since warmer air can hold more moisture, more water is removed by the drying equipment at higher ambient temperatures. With klarx, in cooperation with Strobl, dehumidifiers with dehumidification capacity of up to 150 liters per day can be rented. This means a maximum of 940 m³ of air per hour can be dehumidified. These powerful dehumidifying units are suitable for rooms up to 800 m³ air volume.
By the way: the fact that the amount of water removed per day decreases over time is a sign of drying progress. However, you can only be really sure once you've done a material measurement with a moisture meter on walls or floors.
What does a construction dryer cost per day?
With klarx, construction dryers can be rented from 11 euros per day (excluding VAT). Since electricity costs are additional, another question arises: how much electricity does a construction dryer consume? The maximum power consumption of Strobl construction dryers is 0.58 to 2.4 kW. If a dehumidifier runs around the clock, this results in a maximum electricity consumption of 14 to 58 kWh in 24 hours. At an electricity price of around 30 cents per kWh, electricity costs would be a maximum of 4 to 17 euros per day.
A construction dryer is worth it financially too. Often new buildings are not properly dried out. Damp walls can significantly increase energy consumption in the first few years and cause high heating costs. To avoid this cost trap, it's worth renting an air dehumidifier temporarily in new construction.
Good to know: In case of insurance damage, the costs for construction drying are usually covered by insurance; for new construction and renovations, by the building owner. If construction drying is carried out in a private household, it can be helpful to notify your electricity provider in advance. Otherwise, the provider could significantly increase your monthly installment payments the following year due to the increased consumption from the dehumidifier.
Are construction dryers harmful to health?
No, quite the opposite: not using a dehumidifier can pose long-term health risks. Construction dryers reduce the moisture in the air – but only to the level you'd also find on dry days in nature. While very long-term use of dehumidifiers in occupied rooms can irritate mucous membranes – similar to dry "heating air" in winter – it's much more dangerous not to use a construction dryer after water damage. Mold on damp walls or floors can lead to respiratory diseases in the long term.
