Danny, I can't speak to any pros or cons of your projected acquisition of a high tech climate control system at your school. I have been fighting the same battle with my un-humidity controled University for over 25 years. But, it seems to me that having a special,controled room might have problems of its own. If it is stabalized in the room, what happens when it is rolled onto a dry or damp stage for a recital or concert? Certainly the piano would immediatley begin to become unstable again as it either drys out or starts soaking it up. That might create performance problems,extra work,etc. Likewise, after the performance and the piano is returned to its storage area it would change again. Something to think about.
