Hi Stan.
I think the results of the data loggers show a lot. This
graph is a sample of two closely matched C3 grands in a teaching studio at
the University. The pianos sit side by side . Both pianos had calibrated
data loggers fixed in identical positions on the centre beam.
Humidity and temperature measurements were made every 15mins 24/7.
One piano with cover, one without.
The covered piano had the damp chaser unplugged for a few days.
Tuning changes were also made on a weekly basis, but I will share that data
at a later date.
You will note that the temperature of the covered piano is one to two
degrees higher because of reduced circulation, but the humidity is on
average 10% higher.
My research has shown that pads should be changed every 60days for maximum
efficiency.
Just some teaser information.
I will get around to collating and publishing more extensive data later.
Point. These bottom covers work, now we have to collectively find better
ways to install them.
Regards Roger
