Climate Controlled Storage Units
2008-01-29 14:22:00 Climate Controlled Storage Units If you are not convinced that climate controlled storage units protect furniture storage better than a storage building then you better listen up. Both temperature and humidity can have a profound effect on wood furniture and leather sofas. And it does not matter if wood furniture is finished with the finest protective products. It can still absorb moisture like a pack rat absorbs personal storage. On the contrary, wood sucks in dryness like an RV sucks up gas. Wood furniture shrinks from dryness and will eventually split from the lack of moisture. Quite the opposite, wood expands with moisture and will crack from the ongoing stress. It is like twisting a paperclip in one direction and then untwisting it to its original setting. Most likely it will break in the process, but if you are able to twist it back to its original position, it is impossible to get it back to its original perfect form. That is wood for you in a clip.... More About: Climate
