Disklavier

Placing a humidifier above the power supply is not a good idea.

Dampp Chaser offers an upright installation system designed for Disklavier pianos. If I remember right, The dehumidifier rods go inside the lower part of the piano. The humidifier goes on the back side of the piano, covered with a sheet of plastic. Ask your technician to ask the Dampp Chaser folks about it.

My house's relative humidity during the winter months is far from ideal for a piano.  This is a result of having to keep the furnace humidifier turned down to about 20% to avoid condensation build-up on the windows. 

 

To address the chronic low humidity levels, I'm considering having a Dampp Chaser installed on my Disklavier upright MX1Z.  I would really appreciate hearing what others here may think about this.

 

I assume there's room inside the piano for the Dampp Chaser components.  As for the Disklavier internal electronic components, I can't imagine exposing them to 'moderate' humidity levels should pose any significant problems.
