This shed doesn't have electricity. Even if I ran an extension cord across the front lawn (or buried a branch line from the house), I don't think I'd try running a dehumidifier in an un-insulated space (equivalent to dehumidifying the great outdoors). These pianos belong to me, and they are haul-aways. They would do no worse than the piano I take care of, belonging to summer music programs and living throughout the year in unweatherized buildings. I just wanted to deflect the ground humidity. Bill Ballard RPT NH Chapter, P.T.G.
