Anyone have experience of Drying cabinets in an office environment? Ones they'd recommend installing or avoiding. Also observations on size. We have about 100 staff. About 6 regularly cycle in, a further 6 irregularly.

Don't know about drying cabinets but I would highly recommend putting a dehumidifier in the room with it plumbed into a sink pipe or other to save the reservoir filling up. We have one in the water heater cupboard at home and it turns the drying time for a full load of towels form 24 hours to 4 hours.
the 16 litre unit is the best as it gets the most out of the air in the same time
Argos has it in at £159.99 or there is a 20L one too for £179.99

Another vote for a dehumidifier - one of my previous offices had 10 regular cyclists and an ebac unit wired into a working hours time switch and auto-drain kept us totally sorted without any interaction/maintenance etc.

Office AC should be able to cope with the humidity. All you really need is a heater and perhaps a fan to facilitate air flow.

Cheers all.
Our "changing room" is very small, its a cupboard really, with no ventilation. Because of this, they won't let us put a heater on in there (fire risk).
There is a slightly smaller cupboard through the stud that has a sink though, so perhaps the humidifier option might work - if the cupboard was warmer!
