STRING SHIELD
A polycarbonate clear glass shield is an excellent way to protect your piano strings from dust, condensation, and the risk of rust—especially if you live near water, where humidity levels are high. Installing this transparent barrier keeps the strings and tuning pins safe from environmental damage without obstructing your view of the beautiful inner workings of the piano. Unlike material covers, the clear shield allows you to admire the strings while ensuring that maintenance costs from corrosion and accumulated debris are minimized. Additionally, the polycarbonate material is acoustically transparent, preserving the loud and resonant sound of your piano so your music remains unaffected.
This elegant solution can save you the significant expense and hassle of replacing rusted strings or tuning pins in the future.
Rusted strings—particularly in the bass section of your piano—can make the sound dull, while in the higher register, condensation can increase the risk of string breakage during tuning. Changing all the strings can be expensive, but using this shield helps delay the impact of airborne elements that cause strings to corrode over time.
The shield is flexible easy to install and remove, Piano City can provide an installation service with the purchase of the shield, pianos with a depth more than 151cm, the shield is 2 pieces. Contact us so we can provide you with an adaquate quote, we require your piano size and model.
DAMPP CHASER
A piano is constructed primarily of wood and felt—materials that react constantly to changes in room humidity. When humidity fluctuates, the soundboard swells or shrinks, pulling the piano out of tune and throwing off key touch. Installing a Dampp-Chaser creates an ideal micro-climate directly inside the instrument. By maintaining constant relative humidity, it keeps your piano sounding crisp, stabilized, and enjoyable to play every time you sit down.
The valuable benefits of a Dampp-Chaser extend far beyond simple pitch stability. By eliminating severe atmospheric swings, it prevents major structural issues such as cracked soundboards, loose tuning pins, and glue-joint separation. It stops keys from sticking in damp weather, prevents action parts from rattling in dry air, and protects metal strings and pins from rust. Over time, the system pays for itself by dramatically extending the life of your tunings and protecting your piano from costly structural repairs.
The Dampp-Chaser system can be easily installed on both grand and upright pianos by a qualified technician. On grand pianos, the system mounts discreetly out of sight underneath the soundboard, while on uprights, it fits neatly inside the lower cabinet beneath the keyboard. It operates quietly in the background, providing complete, worry-free climate control for any size or style of piano.
Piano City can get a dampp chaser installed prior to receiving your new piano in our store, of if you already have a piano in your home and require this we can put you in touch with a qualified technician, for more information please contact one of out stores.
