[CAUT] Relative Humidity

[Paul T Williams]

Hi Ric and all,

Well, I showed these pictures to our head piano professor who immediately 
informed the Director of Music here.  He has been petitioning the powers 
that be, but I think this evidence has put a fire under his rear end. 
Let's hope I don't need to call hasmat!
Meanwhile, I'll try at least to put in a DC. It has a pretty long, thick 
cover.  Anything will help if even only a small bit....  There won't be 
any complaints about cords hanging about, but I will have to train people 
to leave it plugged in.

When I have breaking news, I'll let you know....film at 11

Paul

I agree Jim.  Like I said at the outset. There is no way a DC system is 
going to help significantly given these kinds of conditions.  For 
crimminy sakes... theres a storm front in the room !  The pics are 
amazing.  Really, this should be shown to health, fire and safety 
officials.  Thats one heck of a lot of amperes buzzing away up there in 
that wet fog.... no way that can be safe.  What kind of yahoo in charge 
doesnt see the major type mismalfunctionary problem and order a fix ? 
This goes way beyond whats good for the pianos me thinks.

Cheers
RicB



    I saw the data logger charts and the pictures.  Conditions like that 
are
    unacceptable, and sometimes you just have to say so.  Whether the HVAC
    system is old or new, if the relative humidity makes wild rapid
    swings and
    sometimes there is fog and condensate in the room, something is
    badly wrong
    and needs to be fixed.  What is it doing now that cold weather is on 
the
    way?  I wish you well in getting the point across to the right people.
