Do you tune a Square Grand to A-440?

I don't tune square grands to any pitch.  If you want to try it, tune it to the old International pitch of A-435 which was used a lot during  the last 1/4 century.

  I have a client that has a newly strung square grand, should it be tuned to A-440?  Someone told me that square grands were not tuned to A-440 but lower.  

  Which pitch then, if I may ask?

  Thank you,

  Tim
