The Piano Life Saver System…
The system provides a consistent climate, keeping the humidity level constant year round in any climate or environment. The Piano Life Saver is installed out of sight, inside the piano. Models are available for Grand Pianos, Baby Grands, and Upright pianos.
Benefits of the Piano Life Saver
• Permits the tuning to hold better between regular tunings
• Minimizes the expansion and contraction of action parts which provides optimum touch and predictable keyboard control
• Prevents rust on the strings and metal parts
• Minimizes felt deterioration, reducing the harsh tones that come from flattened hammer felt in low humidity or the muffled tones from swollen hammer felt in high humidity
• Minimizes glue failure throughout the piano
• Protects your investment year after year
How the Piano Life Saver System works
The Piano Life Saver System is made up of basic components which work together to control internal piano humidity levels, maintaining the recommended relative humidity and climate no matter what the external conditions are.
Through a cycling action, the Humidistat is calibrated to create a separate environment within the piano, producing a narrow range of average humidity. When the Humidistat, located less than an inch from the soundboard, senses that the wood is dry, it turns thepiano Humidifier on. Then, when the Humidifier has provided enough moisture to the soundboard, the Humidistat turns off the Humidifier and turns on the Dehumidifier. Thepiano Dehumidifier carries away moisture from the soundboard on air currents until the Humidistat 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.
Buying a piano?
If you are buying a new piano, keep your piano “like new” by installing the Piano Life Saver System now. Protect the piano’s investment value by preventing cracks and splits from fluctuating humidity. With the System, the piano will stay on pitch constantly. That means, the tuner will only need to do a fine tuning of the piano and will not need to do a time-consuming pitch correction before he can begin the fine tuning. Your piano can be tuned much faster and that saves you money with every tuning. In this way, the System quickly pays for itself!
If you are buying a used piano, optimize keyboard responsiveness and enhance pitch stability with the Piano Life Saver System. As mentioned above, when the pitch is stabilized, the tuner will only need to do a fine tuning of the piano and will not need to do a time-consuming pitch correction before he can begin the fine tuning. For this reason, the System saves you money with each tuning.
