Understanding Climate Control
Standard storage units offer basic protection from the elements – a roof overhead and walls to keep out wind and rain. Climate-controlled units, on the other hand, maintain a consistent temperature and humidity level year-round. This controlled environment is crucial for safeguarding your belongings from a variety of threats:
- Temperature Fluctuations: Extreme heat can warp furniture, damage electronics, and melt delicate items like candles or wax figures. Conversely, freezing temperatures can crack leather, break down plastics, and even damage important documents. Climate control keeps the temperature within a comfortable range, preventing these damaging extremes.
- Humidity Swings: High humidity can lead to mold and mildew growth, which can harm furniture, clothing, and even important paperwork. Climate control minimizes humidity levels, creating a dry environment that discourages the growth of these destructive organisms.
What Can You Store in Our Climate-Controlled Storage?
Here are some examples of items that benefit from the added protection of climate-controlled storage:
- Electronics: Computers, TVs, musical instruments, and other electronics are susceptible to damage from extreme temperatures and humidity.
- Furniture: Fine wood furniture, leather upholstery, and antique pieces can all be warped or cracked by fluctuating temperatures.
- Artwork and Collectibles: Paintings, photographs, rare books, and other valuable items can be damaged by extreme heat, cold, or humidity.
- Documents and Records: Important paperwork, legal documents, and sentimental keepsakes are best preserved in a dry, controlled environment to prevent warping, fading, or mold growth.
