The Joh.deHeer Grand Piano Carpet Extended - 287 is the ideal complement for your acoustic grand piano. The carpet is designed to provide optimal protection for both your grand piano and the floor.

• Protects your instrument from rising heat from underfloor heating
• Absorbs sound

• Protects your floor against scratches
• Prevents dust and dirt from getting under your piano

Humidity

For the technical condition of a piano or grand piano, it is essential that your instrument is placed in good conditions. Too low humidity or rising heat from floor heating can cause cracks and tears in the comb, soundboard and tuning block. As a result, your piano will no longer be tunable, thus losing its sound and value. Repairing this is very costly, which is why it is important to monitor humidity with a hygrometer. For a piano, it is important that it is between 40 and 60%.

The piano Carpet is the means to counter the rising heat of underfloor heating and protect you instrument. However, you still need to keep an eye on the humidity. Should it be too low, it is best to have a piano life-safety system installed to protect your instrument.
