Hi Tom,

Outside walls.  get them all the time. If its a wall that does not =
fluctuate in temperature its OK. Depends on two factors, sun on wall =
during day and temp low in winter. If the outside temp falls below 10 =
degrees C, outside walls are not stable enough to ensure no damage to =
the piano. Minor variations can be overcome by keeping the piano 6 to =
10" away from the wall. I will often suggest using the piano as a room =
divider and put a heavy drape over the back.

  Dear list,
      can you give  some suggestions for a customer`s following inquiry:
              - in a 20 year old home she needs to put her piano on an =
outside wall (she doesn`t know if the home has inside and outside =
moisture barrier but says it has insulation).  =20
          - her question is:  - is there some type of buffer that can =
located between the piano and the outside wall to compensate for the =
piano having to be placed there?  e.g.- plywood
                                                                         =
                           - cloth
                                                                         =
                           - plastic
  thanks in advance,
