Testimonials from Piano Manufacturers

Kawai:
"Your Dampp-Chaser humidity control systems are the best and most carefully designed systems we have seen."

Baldwin:
"Baldwin recommends the Dampp-Chaser system as a valuable means to help insure the longevity and stability of our pianos."

Yamaha:
"...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."

Bosendorfer:
"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."

Steinway & Sons:
"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."

Schimmel:
"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." - Nikolaus Schimmel
