Permanent Dehumidifier Drain Installation — Ryde
Job location: Ryde
A Ryde customer was tired of constantly emptying the water bucket from their basement dehumidifier. Steve installed a permanent waste pipe with a P-trap so the dehumidifier can drain automatically instead. The trap's water seal helps prevent smells coming back from the drain. A practical upgrade that removes the need for regular bucket emptying while the dehumidifier continues managing moisture in the basement.

Steve, was straightforward to deal with, turned up when he said he would and did the job! Simple things but they make the world of difference. A pleasure to deal with.
