I really hate tuning and perspiring, (sweating). i am lucky enough that I can tell people to wait till fall. The pianos, if tuned in the summer, do not stay in tune, as the humidity fluctuations are so great. Then when Fall comes, they are really out. So in my situation it works out, not to tune during the Summer. There are of course situations where some pianos must be tuned during the Summer.
