Do you want your piano to last longer and sound better?

The Piano Lifesaver


The most precise method of humidity control for your piano.

There is a product that can significantly protect the investment you have in any age piano. The Piano Lifesaver by Dampp-Chaser is a complete humidity control system that will maintain a steady moisture content in the wood of your piano. This will both preserve the wood and make tunings sound better longer.

The Piano Lifesaver has both a humidifier and de-humidifier that maintain the most precise possible humidity control for your piano utilizing a humidistat that automatically switches systems based upon changing environmental conditions.

This system must be installed by a qualified technician. I am a Piano Lifesaver Field Expert because of the many systems I have installed. Cost is $440 to $720 depending on the size of the piano. Installation is included in the price. I offer a half price tuning if done within 2-4 weeks of the installation.

There is another level of humidity control for your instrument.

MusicSorb is an alternative that you can install yourself.

MusicSorb is a specially formulated silica gel that unlike other silica gels which only absorb moisture, will absorb or release moisture to the environment in which it is placed to maintain a more consistent moisture level in the piano. It is most effective in vertical pianos and in grand pianos where one normally keeps the lid down. Two packets, each weighing one kilogram, are placed upon the cast iron plate of the grand piano, one near the tail and one at the curve. In vertical pianos two packets are placed inside the piano on the board to which the pedals are attached.
