Whole room humidity control better than Dampp Chaser. ( Right?)

I sold a new piano to a customer with a brand new house in an exclusive
neighborhood. It was probably one of the most expensive homes built in Terre
Haute at that time. I tried to sell her on a DC system to protect the
investment but she declined saying that her house had a state of the art
climate control HVAC system. When I came out in the late spring the piano
was considerably sharp and the windows of the house were open. She likes to
open the windows whenever she can. 

 

I think you may be technically correct, a properly "controlled" room is the
best, I just never encounter such a room in the real world.

I have a very firm opinion that whole room/house/institution humidity
control is superior to a standard DC installation, or even a DC installation
with bottom and string covers.

 

Nuff said.
