It will protect it from moisture, dust, and careless human contact. A piano cover is a wise choice. A lot of businesses have protected their pianos with a piano cover. A piano cover will extend the life piano, giving a business the extra insurance it needs.
I had become a volunteer last year with our church’s outreach program. It was my way to give back to the community that had given so much to me. I was given the opportunity to volunteer at the local soup kitchen. I would volunteer 2 days a week. I loved talking and working for the people. It was sad to see individuals and families in this situation. It is hard to see people struggle. John work with our church choir. As everyone ate John would play the piano in the background. Everyone really enjoyed the music and sometime would sing along. A private donor donated the grand piano. It became a focal point of the dining hall. The piano was shared by everyone. It was also played by several homeless people. There were a lot of good players in the group. It always brightens the overall experience.
Early last year a fire had temporally closed the soup kitchen. A small electrical fire had started in the kitchen . Luckily it had happened over night and no one was hurt. The kitchen damage luckily was minor. The building was up to code and the fire sprinklers had quickly done their job. I knew that there would be water damage and my first thought was if the piano was ruined. I knew that it could be very expensive to replace . A new piano would cost over 15 grand. Luckily it was covered. I mean that literally. Not by insurance as it was too expensive for the soup kitchen to have, the piano was fitted with a piano cover. The grand piano cover protected the wood surface of the piano by keeping it dry from the sprinklers.
After a few days of clean up the soup kitchen was back in business. I was behind the line serving my friends that I had come to know. John and the guests were back enjoying the sound of the piano. The piano cover did an excellent job. It saved the soup kitchen a lot of money. The piano covered saved the day!
