There are many reasons pianos go out of tune. The greatest factor is temperature and humidity. When the humidity goes up, the wooden parts of the piano swell increasing the tension and raising the pitch. When the humidity goes down, the reverse happens. As fall approaches, temperatures will drop, and your piano may need some help.

How can you help your piano? The more consistent you can keep the temperature and humidity in your house, the more stable your piano will be. If you don’t want to increase your energy bill, you can also have a humidity control system installed in your piano. For more information, call (843)647-9784 or email [email protected].
