  • 1.  Dehumidifier Rod Buzz

    Hello all,

    I have a client with a buzz that seems to be coming from a PLS dehumidifier rod vibrating against the clip in a grand piano. The buzz went away when I slid the rod around, but I am concerned about it coming back.

    My normal instinct would be to put a piece of felt around the rod in the clip, but should I be worried about the potential of overheating the felt and starting a fire? It seems extremely unlikely, as the rods don't get super hot, but obviously the stakes are also extremely high.
