Fabrics, foam and damp air

Pereira, next to Dosquebradas, averages about 21.5 °C, about 2,460 mm of rain a year and 77 % relative humidity. November is usually the wettest month and January the driest.

For covered terraces and damp rooms, choose fabrics rated for outdoor use and quick-drying foam. Wood should be dry and treated against termites (comején).

Rainy weeks make moving furniture into a home harder: plan a covered place to unwrap the pieces.
