Once, when my piano and in my new position was a music room (formerly my now college-bound room) of my son, I picked the perfect place, and thought that's it! Well, not quite. I soon learned that there is more to the care of a piano than just the perfect place for her and him out of dusting now and then. The main reason for any kind of problems you might have with a piano, of course, is always out of tune piano. And the main reason for a piano out of tune happens whenthe humidity in and around the piano are not consistent.
Pianos are usually made of wood, which greatly affected by the temperature and humidity in the first instance is made. Wooden piano parts can swell and / or shrink during the season and even daily changes in humidity in your house. This will affect the piano melody and touch the piano. If there are wide variations in humidity can crack and split wood. So you see why it is extremely important to ensure, via humidity.
The felt andLeather parts of the piano are also affected by humidity changes. Drastic changes in humidity can lead to change these parts dimension that would affect the regulation and friction, stiffness, or the touch. Really high humidity could possibly condensation on the metal parts of the piano to create as strings, tuning pins and hardware. This could ultimately lead to rust.
Maintaining a constant humidity around your piano, it helps to stay longer in line. It also helpsTo minimize damage, such as turning loose pens, glue joint problems and soundboard cracks. Move your piano away from heating and air vents, doors, windows, fireplaces, stoves, or wherever it is too extreme fluctuations in temperature and humidity will be exposed to the first step in protecting your piano. Keep it away from direct sunlight and the positioning of your piano on an inside wall rather than an outside wall of the aid in a consistent humidity.
HumidityControl within the house is another step to take to protect your piano. Most areas of the United States, the relative humidity is very low during the cold winter and very high in the spring and summer months. In other countries, conversely, the moisture cycle. Appreciable ways to explain low relative humidity are things like shocks from static electricity when walking across the carpet or sliding out of a car. High relative humidity, as I noticed most of the doors and soggy feelingNewspapers.
There is an inexpensive instrument called a hygrometer, an instrument that measures the temperature and moisture, which aids to protect your piano as you will be able to take the room humidity and temperature in accordance with the attention to adjust these values is. Hygrometers are easy to obtain, affordable, and will be invaluable to you and the piano into your son's old room, ah, ah, I mean music room!
