Greetings,
Wanting to put a Piano Life Saver System (the piano-mounted humidity control system formerly known as Dampp-Chaser) on a Mason & Hamlin grand, which has a Centripetal Tension Resonator. A colleague reports that one such piano he services has had the CTR rust due to the humidification part of the system. This, of course, is collateral damage that I would prefer to avoid!
Have any of you had a similar experience with regard to a rusty CTR? And if so, did this happen with the water tank(s) suspended from support rods mounted ABOVE the beams? Below the beams?
Thanks,
Alan
