Equipment & Prices

Complete drying kit for hire in Manchester: one 50L dehumidifier plus two XPOWER P-800 air movers. Built for flood drying, water damage, leaks, and drying out new plaster or screed. The dehumidifier takes moisture out of the air while the air movers speed up drying on floors, walls, carpets and ceilings — a faster, more complete setup than hiring a single machine. Each XPOWER P-800 delivers 3,200 CFM of airflow, with 3 speeds and 4 drying positions. Hiring the kit is cheaper than renting the three machines separately (£54/day or £105/week if hired on their own). £45/day or £90/week.
