Why your dehumidifier needs regular cleaning
Having a dehumidifier at home is an excellent option as it removes excess moisture from the air, particularly in winter. This happens because the outside atmosphere is more humid and this transfers indoors — and windows tend to stay closed longer, preventing the natural escape of steam from showers, cooking and body heat.
Está Limpo carries out dehumidifier cleaning at the end of winter so you can store it already clean. We also recommend a clean before you start using it again ahead of the humid season.

Frequently asked questions about dehumidifier cleaning
How often should I clean my dehumidifier?
We recommend at least once a year. Ideally clean it at the end of winter before storing, and again before using it at the start of the next humid season.
Do you collect and deliver?
Yes. We collect the dehumidifier from your home, carry out the cleaning and deliver it back at an agreed time. No need to go anywhere.
Do you work with all brands?
Yes. We clean dehumidifiers of any brand and model — Trotec, Meaco, De'Longhi, Rowenta, Olimpia Splendid, and others. The process is adapted to each unit.
How long does cleaning take?
Usually 1 to 2 business days after collection. We always agree on delivery time in advance.
What happens if I don't clean it?
A dirty dehumidifier accumulates mold, dust and bacteria which are then released into the home's air. This can cause or worsen allergies, asthma and rhinitis, and also reduces the unit's efficiency.
Do you also clean air conditioning?
Yes. In addition to dehumidifiers, we also clean air conditioning units and other air quality appliances.
