I have a client with a 7' Kawai grand in a basement studio. The
Relative Humidity is always on the high side (60%). I urged him to
monitor the humidity with an electronic hygrometer and to get a
dehumidifier.<br>
<br>
He did this, however the controller on the dehumidifier in very
inaccurate. With the controller set at 40%, it cut out when the
humidity is still above 60%. The manufacturer told him they are all
not precise. He has searched for higher end units, but even the
manufacturers of these do not guarantee the precision of their
controllers.<br>
<br>
I would prefer to control the environment in the studio because it
"should" be a straight forward thing to do. I feel a Piano Life Saver
System will simply always be fighting the higher humidity in the room.<br>
<br>
I have thought of using a Piano Life Saver humidistat to control a
simple room de-humidifier. Would this work? Would he need a relay
between the humidistat and the de-humidifier?<br>
<br>
Any thoughts, and especially experiences, welcome.<br>
