Your Guide to Climate Control Storage

Why It’s Important

The moisture in humidity and dramatic changes in temperature can severely damage your items. For example, moisture can warp your wood furniture or rust metal pieces. High heat or humidity can compromise your electronics by getting moisture inside the intricate components and rusting them and overheating them. Fabrics or paper such as paintings and books can also be harmed by mold that grows in high humidity.

Who Should Use It

Climate controlled storage is recommended for those storing items in an area that has high humidity or extreme temperatures that move outside the range of 30- to 90-degrees Fahrenheit. It’s recommended if you’ll be storing items that you’re not willing to have damaged, such as anything with a significant monetary or sentimental value. It’s your best choice if you will be putting away items for a long time—longer than a month—or if you’re unsure how long you’ll be storing them. If you plan to visit the unit often to access your items, you may also decide that it’s worth it to have comfortable conditions when you are there.
