Basement
New life for a damp basement
Trine and Mikkel live in a master builder's villa from 1935 with a large basement. They would like to use the basement for storage and creative space. Unfortunately, they have a very familiar problem in their basement - moisture. And moisture is not the only challenge the basement presents. Water has found its way into the basement several times and they have also had mould.
The basement has therefore undergone a major transformation with mould control, new windows, installation of a heat pump, new tiled floors, treatment of walls with breathable materials.
Although they have done many things to make the basement usable, it is still very damp. One of the ways they experience this is that the textiles Trine has stored in the basement for their creative projects feel damp and clammy.

Simple and easy installation
So the next step in their ‘Get the basement back’ project is to install ventilation. Trine and Mikkel have therefore chosen to install 3 DUKA One Pro 50 S Wi-Fi units with a brick red outer screen that matches the house.
A diamond drill was responsible for drilling the hole. Mikkel did the rest of the installation himself.
A completely different basement
After installing DUKA One in their basement, Trine and Mikkel can feel a clear difference and say that everything just works.
The basement is clearly the room in the house with the most fresh air, and one of the ways we can feel it is that the textiles that Trine has stored in the basement are no longer damp. And in general, they are amazed at how well they work.
We kind of want to just install it in the whole cabin now - Quote Mikkel
