Humidity Control Probably the
biggest enemy your piano faces is humidity, or rather, variations in
humidity. Most pianos are designed to
operate at about 42% relative humidity.
As the humidity in a room varies from that amount, the wooden parts in
a piano expand and contract. This can
lead to loose or tight parts, cracked soundboards, loose pinblocks and rusty
strings, among other things. We highly
recommend the installation and use of
Dampp-Chaser Humidity
Control Systems.
These systems provide excellent control of humidity in and around your
piano, will make your piano’s tuning last longer and be much more stable, as
well as extending the life of your piano. |
