frequent tuning - floating pitch? was tuning

Jason..I think in the "real world" the sharp or flat factor applies mostl=
y
to the Tenor section. Rarely, in my opinion does the piano go sharp or fl=
at
EVENLY over the whole piano.... Here lies the problem...If the Tenor goes
sharp, do you raise the Bass and treble to match? or do you lower the Ten=
or
section?=0D

I imagine that if you "recently" tuned the piano (last week or last month=
 or
two months ago) and now it's still "in tune" but a couple of cents sharp,
you tune it where it lies? That makes it a half-hour tuning instead of an
hour and a half, and the following week (or month or couple of months) yo=
u
again tune it where it lies, and within six months, when you have the cou=
ple
of hours, you bring it all to 440 again. Yes? Or do you keep adjusting it=
 to
440 every time? Or sell Dampp-chasers?=0D

I tune cruise ship pianos once a week.  On them you have the problem of
rocking, vibrations, salt air, hard players and continuous playing
(mechanisms).  Comes down to the fact that you tune a whenever it needs i=

Hi everyone,=0D
How often is too often to tune a piano?  I typically see twice a year, or
even every three months.  Is anything less than that necessary such as on=
ce
a month or even once a week which I 've heard of?=0D
