Charles has twice served as president of local chapter of the PTG, the National Piano Tuners Guild.
Professional, PTG certified piano tuners recommend that because your piano contains materials such as wood and felt, they live and die due to changes with climatic conditions. Avoid heating and air conditioning vents, fireplaces and areas which receive direct sunlight. Extreme swings from hot to cold or dry to wet cause wood to expand and contract, affecting tone, pitch, and action response or touch.
You can reduce the severity of these effects by placing your piano near a wall away from windows or doors that are opened ...
... frequently. Your piano will perform best under consistent conditions neither too wet nor dry, optimally at a temperature of 68 degrees F and 42 percent relative humidity.
Every piano requires a different level of maintenance, depending upon the quality of materials used and the design and level of craftsmanship. Manufacturers can provide general advice on tuning frequency but your technician can give specific recommendations based upon your usage and locale.
