Is this normal- I have two dehumidifiers in the house both 10 litre VAX ones plus a tiny one in eldest's bedroom as a large one won't fit in. The 10 litre ones are on constantly except when we go to bed and need emptied approx every 24hrs.
The walls get black spots up them which I regularly wash off with a mould spray
Also the carpeted floor feels cold and damp to my feet and anything left lying on it gets a cold damp feel to it.
From google it appears that most uk homes are damp or at least have high humidity so is my situation just to be expected? My little monitor said 70 this morning and since turning the dehumidifier on its gone down to 66. At the end of the day its usually down to about 60, sometimes I get it to 55.
The house is a victorian 2bed semi.
