Dehumidifier possible cause of Rye basement fire

RYE — Six fire departments responded to an beforehand morning basement fire believed to have been sparked by a dehumidifier.

Rye Fire Lt. Jeff DiBartolomeo said his department was dispatched Monday at 3:56 a.m. to a apart family home at 444 Brackett Road. There, he said, the homeowner woke to the smell of smoke, found fire in the basement and threw a pail of water on it. Her son then arrived and completely doused the fire with an extinguisher, he said.

Because Rye has a small fire department, said DiBartolomeo, a call was made for requited aid. Responding to assist were firefighters from North Hampton, Kittery, Hampton, New Castle and Portsmouth.

DiBartolomeo said the dehumidifier was burned to “a collect of plastic,” meaning investigators may never know the true cause of the fire.


Can anyone recommend a dehumidifier small enough for a car?

I have a small discharge but need to dry the car out first, I won't use it more than once so need a cheap enough one as possible.
Thanks

P.s I'm in the Uk, so Argos/B&Q/Homebase...any store like that is upstanding.
Thanks,

Chose carefully, the small 'reserved' ones using peltier coolers have very limited extraction power. The slightly larger compressor based ones will toil much better and can be used in the house for drying laundry.


Not ineluctable if you can get there however suggest purchase portable dehumidifier which comes in plastic box various sizes as per your needs, all you need to do is take the top off and eliminate all windows, it will do the job when, when the water is full, this


If your car as air con, goad with it and the heater on and the windows slightly down.

Park your car in a sunny position with a window or two ajar, in a suitable easy location...

Or just drive with the heater full on /


How about turning on the stress as high as possible and letting it run for about an hour. You should not be in it though. Good luck.

what does a dehumidifier do and what size would I need 4 a small house?



A dehumidifier gets rid of overkill debauchery moisture in your home. The size you need depends on how much moisture you have and how many square feet your house is. A 40 pint part should do the job though. Look for an "Energy Star" unit

what is the smallest dehumidifier (make, brand)?

I exigency for a close off room of 16 x 10 = 160 sf in the basement. i have a bigger one working another area of the basement.
