Re: [disklavier] Recommended Storage for Disklavier

2003-06-10 by Carol Beigel

Is climate controlled storage available? It would be worth the investment to 
keep the humidity around the piano about 55% to protect the soundboard and 
piano action.  PIanos are not necessarily sensitive to temperature changes, 
but are very, very much affected by high humidity.  Storing the piano on its 
side is all right.  The best storage would be to leave it with a trusted 
friend or relative, or climate controlled storage.  Otherwise, consider 
taking it with you.  Two moves by qualified movers are probably not as hard 
on the instrument as years in storage.
