Major Piano Manufacturers Recommendations

Steingraeber Blüthner Steinway & Sons
"We use only fine natural wood and natural materials in the manufacture of Steingraeber pianos. The Dampp-Chaser System helps to avoid damage to our pianos in severe climatic conditions, especially in overly-dry environments." "The Life Saver System certainly helps to control the humidity around a piano, helps to prevent damage and to maintain its value." "The installation of a Dampp-Chaser Humidity Control System can, in our opinion, provide a degree of climate control for the piano which may not otherwise be attainable."
-Udo Steingraeber -Christian Blüthner-Haessler
Bösendorfer Schimmel Yamaha
"The usage of Dampp-Chaser humidity control systems effectively compensates climatic changes within the piano's environment and is for that reason beneficial in terms of stability and long term reliability." "The best way to preserve the value of fine grands and uprights is to automatically regulate the humidity right within the instrument .. with a System from Dampp-Chaser Corporation." "...Yamaha fully endorses the use of the system with Yamaha pianos in areas that are subject to extremes in humidity. Without such a system, it is very difficult to control the humidity around the piano."
-Nikolaus Schimmel
Kawai Seiler Baldwin
"Your Dampp-Chaser humidity control systems are the best and most carefully designed systems we have seen." "The Dampp-Chaser Climate Control System helps retain both the regulation and pitch of top quality instruments, thus stabilizing the tonal character inherent in a particular make or instrument as well as its long-term value." "Baldwin recommends the Dampp-Chaser system as a valuable means to help insure the longevity and stability of our pianos."
-Ursula Seiler
