How often should a piano be tuned?
Most piano manufacturers recommend 3 to 4 tunings during the first year, and 2 tunings each year thereafter. Teachers, professional pianists, bar and restaurant owners should have their piano tuned more often, depending of the frequent use of the instrument. Please, note that a piano requires a tuning at least once a year, even if you do not use the instrument for a long period of time.
What is the best time of the year to tune a piano?
When seasons change, the humidity and/or temperature levels inside the home or location where the piano is located will change also. Humidity and/or temperature changes can have a great effect on the tuning of the piano. The best thing to do is keep the tuning record constant. If your piano is tuned once a year, keep it tuned every year around the same time, whether it is summer, fall, winter or spring. If your piano is tuned twice a year, keep it tuned every year around the same time. If your piano has not been tuned for a long period of time, or is badly out of tune, have it tuned as soon as possible, whatever the season is.
