From extreme humidity in summer to extreme aridity in winter, this is what your piano undergoes year after year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To counter the damaging effects of humidity variations on your piano, piano manufacturers recommend adding a humidity control system, the Piano Life Saver<\/a>, manufactured by Dampp-Chaser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Piano owners equipped with this system unanimously agree: the tuning holds much better, and the lifespan of their piano will be significantly extended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Controlling a piano’s climate is not easy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Few places on earth naturally provide favorable conditions for a piano. Near the sea, excessively humid salty air causes considerable damage to instruments. You may have heard how a piano sounds in a hotel in Cuba? Conversely, here, the seasonal alternation with the need to heat homes in winter is problematic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the ideal environment for a musical instrument would be the perfectly controlled atmosphere of a museum. If your house is equipped with a similar climate control system, you may not need a Piano Life Saver system. But in reality, homeowners don’t use air conditioning continuously throughout the summer for energy-saving reasons or simply for personal comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A simple and cost-effective solution<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dampp-Chaser claims rightly that the operating costs of this system are considerably lower than using other types of devices. Indeed, dehumidifiers and air conditioners are very energy-intensive. Moreover, filling a portable humidifier every day or emptying a dehumidifier can be cumbersome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system is absolutely silent and very inconspicuous, except for a small block of lights indicating the system’s proper functioning and drawing your attention when it’s time to add water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any case, the system must remain plugged into an electrical outlet not connected to a switch because the power supply must be ensured at all times. (However, an occasional interruption of a few hours or even days is not catastrophic).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the indicator light signals, you need to pour water into a cleverly concealed tube. A special additive is added each time to the filling water to prevent mold and lime buildup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Give yourself peace of mind<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only a technician trained and certified by Dampp-Chaser should install such a system in your home. To ensure that this process is always carried out correctly, the device cannot be sold directly to a consumer who wants to install it himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the manufacturer’s recommendations, during tuning, your technician will check the proper functioning of the system and replace the evaporation pads. You can purchase a bottle of the required additive if needed. Every year, the system will be disassembled for a thorough cleaning to optimize its performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
