Disklavier

It seems a lot of people buying disklavier grands have commented on the
amount of heat that their pianos make - is this normal ? Do the uprights
suffer from the same problems ?

Is it going to damage the piano - ie does the heat pose a threat to the
soundboards etc? (presumably having part of the piano repeatedly gett very
hot and then cooling down rapidly isn't good for it?). Electronics /
solenoids / drive circuitry is bound to get hot, but is it positioned in a
sensible place?

Cheers,

James
