The Dampp-Chaser Climate Control Systems is made up of three basic
components which work together to control the humidity levels whitin your piano,
maintaining the recommended average 42% relative humidity, no matter what the external
conditions are.
 |
Humidistat - this is the brain of the system, which
senses whether your piano is too moist or too dry.
Dehumidifier - carries moisture away from your piano
using warm air currents when humidity levels rise.
Humidifier - moisturizes the dry wood of your piano when
the humidity drops below 42%.
|
These components cycle together to maintain the wood
of your piano at 42% relative humidity. When the Humidistat senses that the wood is dry,
it turns the Humidifier on. Then, when the Humidifier has provided enough moisture to the
soundboard, the Humidistat turns off the Humidifier and turns the Dehumidifier on. The
Dehumidifier carries away moisture from the soundboard on warm air currents until the
Humidistat again senses that the soundboard is dry. The system again switches to the
humidifying function. The cycle continues day after day, year after year, protecting your
piano from external conditions.
The Dampp-Chaser System comes with a watering system to
allow you to keep the Humidifier supplied with water.
Each Damp-Chaser System carries a 5-Year Guarantee.
