Les,
I doubt seriously that the units would kill off mold but
they would go quite a ways to preventing it in the first place. They will
likely need to clean the mold first, by hand, and then install the D\C units
to prevent regrowth. YMMV

Will installation of a Dampp Chaser kill off mold in a piano- Baldwin
Hamilton? I looked at one piano, on way to tune another. This church has
20, and they are considering DCs for all of them- but presently there is
mold on the keysticks, and a bit on the music rack. Does anyone know what
kind of legal issues come into play here, a church where LOTS of people are
in and out?
In a church setting- room AC on two times a week (Houston), would that cause
the hammer felts to come unglued from the moldings?
Thanks
