Make your own moisture absorber to keep your home damp-free this autumn.
With temperatures dropping as autumn sets in, homeowners may notice condensation appearing on their windows.
The dehumidifier is a highly sought after device during the colder seasons. Often hailed as the ultimate moisture absorber, the air conditioner sucks up any water vapour to reduce the level of humidity in the air. During warmer periods of the year, keeping windows open allows damp air to escape, but this can wreak havoc on heating bills in the colder months, as the warmth generated by central heating flies right out the window.

Replace the gel once every two weeks for best results. Alternatively, you can also use charcoal in the same way as it absorbs moisture from the air."
