Where should I place my piano in my home?
Choose a location with stable temperature and humidity, away from direct sunlight, exterior walls, and open windows.
A piano is an intricately constructed instrument sensitive to fluctuations in temperature and humidity, wind, and light. The ideal location has a stable temperature and avoids large changes in humidity and exposure to drafts.
Do not place the piano on a western-facing wall, which heats daily from the afternoon sun. Do not leave it directly under an open window or in any breezeway, as these areas expose the piano to temperature and humidity fluctuations that can cause unstable tuning.
