<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Rob Kiddell posted recently =
regarding challenges
in installing the new Dampp-Chaser humidistat with the attached =
(hard-wired) LED
light panel. We intend to address this issue more completely in =
our next
company newsletter but for now we would like to provide the following
information.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Rob's comment is not the first =
complaint we have
received about the plugless system. We started our design with =
plugs but
switched to a hard-wired unit because less than adequate reliability was =
provided with plugs. The current humidistat with the attached LED =
light
panel is much more reliable than the plug type system despite it being =
more time
consuming to install.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Related to Rob's comment is our =
concern about
the existence of grand pianos where the warning light probe assembly =
will not
fit between the top of the beam and the soundboard. In the =
Technical
Briefs found in our last newsletter (Piano Climate Control Update Vol. 4 =
No. 1
mailed at the end of June) we asked for anyone who had encountered such =
a
situation to give us a call at 1-800-438-1524. We never received =
any calls
so we felt this wasn't a significant concern. If anyone else has
encountered this problem, please give us a call or email us at <A
