[CAUT] Topping up the tank

That's the one thing (or one of the things) that I don't get about these
systems.  I'm fortunate that our climate here is sufficiently benign
that we don't have any systems installed.  As the system is currently
designed, it forces humidity into the piano - even when the ambient
humidity is high - and then forces it out.  To me it would make more
sense to have the humidifier come on at say 35% and the dehumidifier to
come on at 50% (45%??) but in between those it would leave the poor
piano alone!  Or in the summer if your humidity is high, just disconnect
the humidifier and the opposite in the winter.  What good is it to
continually humidify then dehumidify the piano probably several times a
day?
