---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Here in Olympia, Washington the humidity rarely goes below 40% so it's common to put in just a 50watt rod/humidistat system. The advantages are: Lower cost: $150 instead of $350 for the complete system. Less maintenance: The customer just keeps it plugged in and forgets about it. Its difficult to convence customers out here of the value of adding humidity! Exception There are still a number of homes out there with wood heat. This is a really good argument for the whole system. I once had a customer who was great about getting her yamaha console tuned every 6 months. Every time I went back the piano sounded awfull! I finally talked her into installing a complete system. I called her 1 year later to schedule an appointment and she didn't return my call. 2 years later I went back and it was a touch-up job! That was the most dramatic improvement I've seen. The customer went from almost never having an in tune piano to almost always having an in tune piano!

If so, consider Damppchaser full systems. At 11:27 AM 06/08/2004 -0700, you wrote: >I base it on living here for the past 12 years.
