Hi John, I believe that humidity effects require fresh FAC's each and every time in my location. But some few areas are extremely stable as far as humidity. Or if the piano is properly equipped with a DC system, the effects are limited to the changes in barometric pressure which changes the partial pressure and therefore the moisture content of the sound board.
