    Is this expected behavior from a damp chaser that was just switched on ? The orange line is a sensor in my piano and the blue line my living room. I live at 7000ft - Boulder, Colorado. 

    Thanks

    Your extreme temperature range is going to make the system struggle. Warm air can possess more water vapor (moisture) than cold air, so with the same amount of absolute/specific humidity, air will have a HIGHER relative humidity if the air is cooler, and a LOWER relative humidity if the air is warmer.

    Do you have an undercover installed ? A string cover might help too if you already have an undercover.

    Hi Patrick 

    I don't, I have a Kawai ST1 - you wouldn't happen to know where I could pick one up online ?
