Climate Challenges in Northern California

Serving the San Francisco Bay Area and California Valley regions, we understand the unique climate challenges our local environment presents. From coastal fog to inland heat, these diverse conditions can significantly impact your piano's condition and performance. Adding a cover, string cover, or bottom cover to the system really improves your piano’s performance and longevity. 


Why Piano Humidity Control Matters

Your piano is a precision instrument crafted from humidity-sensitive materials:

• Wood components

• Felt hammers

• Wool dampers

• Metal strings and parts

• Creating a stable environment for your piano is crucial to its performance and longevity.
Note that even with the carbon fiber action stack pictured below, the majority of the piano action is still wool and felt. 



Controlling Your Space 

While room-level climate control can be effective in smaller spaces, many situations require a more targeted solution:

- Homes with high ceilings

- Older buildings with varying insulation

- Large spaces like theaters, churches, and schools

- Areas with significant seasonal humidity changes
