Ron, Rather than having the humidity control only on the piano I suggest that the piano be stored in a box that also has humidity control. The box gives the piano a place to be parked - away from the workbench crew. Additionally the piano can be secured and locked away from venturesome hands. The box doesn't need to be sophisticated only a enclosed container that will comfortably let the piano go in and out. The humidity controls can be housed by the tail area and the piano can be easily serviced in the box. It becomes your own tuning studio without the stage building activity that often goes on.
