To maintain humidity where the piano stands, especially during the heating season, we recommend a digitally controlled humidifier. We cover the important topic of humidity in detail in our blog posts. In our experience the ‘Boneco W2055D’ humidifier (MSRP as of 2023: EUR 369.90) is well suited for this. In night mode it runs quietly, and with its 7L tank it suits small to medium-sized rooms. Filling the removable tank is a little awkward, and you should watch out for heavy limescale buildup (depending on local water quality). In very dry conditions or larger rooms you may need two of these units. Regular refilling also has to be organized.
Some dealers still sell what appears to be the same device (possibly an earlier production run) under the old name ‘Air-O-Suisse W2055D’, sometimes for well over EUR 100.00 less. So far we do not take part in referral commission programs, but we are happy if you support us for this tip with a voluntary contribution.
