I currently use a Dampp Chaser Unit to safeguard my piano from humidity and temperature fluctuations. Should I still consider using a piano cover?

With three active toddlers frequently playing near our piano, what steps can I take to protect it?
Piano covers safeguard your instrument from scratches, impacts, abrasions and they offer protection against accidental spills—much more economical than professional refinishing services. We also provide the option of a full-length cover, which offers additional protection in high-traffic settings like schools, churches, and theater or hotel venues. Many covers are made from vinyl and are water repellant, allowing for easy cleanup of any spills and preventing unsightly cup rings.
My piano is positioned in front of several tall windows. Can sunlight damage a piano?
Many people place their grand pianos in beautiful bay windows, which enhances the aesthetic appeal of a room; however, this also exposes the instrument to damaging sunlight for extended periods. Extended exposure to sunlight can lead to significant damage to your piano's finish, including discoloration and hairline cracks due to ultraviolet rays. This exposure is a leading cause of premature aging in pianos. A quality piano cover provides an effective barrier against harmful sunlight, preserving the beauty and longevity of your instrument.
I live in Arizona, where dust is a common issue. Will a cover help protect my piano from dust?
In a word ‘Yes’. No matter where you have your piano, dust can accumulate both on the exterior and inside of your piano. Over time, residue on the wood or lacquer finish can be abrasive. Even regular cleaning can inadvertently scratch the surface. A cover minimizes dust accumulation, protecting both the exterior and interior components. A Grand Piano Action Cover will also protect the inside of your piano when you like to keep the lid up, including tuning pins, hammers, dampers and strings..
