DO YOU NEED CLIMATE-CONTROLLED STORAGE?
The necessity of climate-controlled storage depends on a few different factors.
WHAT You’re Storing
WHERE You’re Storing
WHEN You’re Storing
WHAT you’re storing
(Items That Need Climate Control)
Electronics & Media📺📷💽📀💾🕹
Electronics and media should avoid extreme conditions altogether. Extended exposure to high humidity is damaging to most electronics, and exposure to extreme heat or cold is also not recommended. Some items that benefit from climate control include:
* TVs
* Computers
* Gaming systems
* Stereos
* Speakers
* Cameras
Likewise, DVDs, records, and other media are susceptible to humidity damage and certain items can even melt in extreme heat. Items that can benefit from climate control include:
* CDs & DVDs
* Cassettes and VHS tapes
* Records
* Photos
Furniture🪑 🛋
Wooden furniture will expand and warp with hot, humid weather, and will shrink and crack when exposed to extreme cold.
Leather and upholstered furniture shouldn’t be exposed to warm, humid air for extended periods of time to avoid mold and mildew.
Artwork🖼
Moisture and drastic temperature changes are the enemy of artwork. If you’re in an area that experiences high humidity levels and extreme temperatures, we highly recommend climate control.
Books & Newspapers📰📕📚
These paper-based belongings will wear and fade when exposed to humidity and extreme temperatures for extended amounts of time.
Musical Instruments🎸🎺🎷🥁
Whether you’re storing a percussion, string, or brass instrument, humidity and extreme temperatures can wreak havoc on your instruments.
Wine🍾
Wine retains its quality best when stored in very specific conditions and shouldn’t be left in a non-climate-controlled environment. Though wine is mentioned here, Extra Space Storage offers wine storage, which provides the ideal storage conditions, as a service at select locations.
Collectibles🕰⌚️
Most collectible items, including antiques, artwork, coin collections, stamp collections, and more should be kept in stable, ideal storage conditions.
WHERE you’re storing your belongings matters when determining how important climate-controlled storage is for you.
Extreme Heat☀️
Heat can be damaging to different media types, including vinyl records, discs like CDs and DVDs, photos, film reels, and more. It’s also hard on electronics and can cause wooden furniture to expand and warp. If you live in an area that experiences extreme heat and will be using storage during the summer months, we highly recommend climate-controlled storage.
Extreme Cold❄️
With cold temperatures, items like wooden furniture will shrink and potentially crack, any items that retain moisture can potentially freeze, and several other items can lose quality if exposed for extended periods of time. If you live in an area that experiences extreme cold during the winter months, strongly consider climate-controlled storage.
Extreme Humidity🥵
Humidity can be especially troublesome for items like electronics, artwork, photos, books, and more. Though climate-controlled storage units are not humidity-controlled, they’re typically located within a building structure, so they experience humidity like the interior of a house would. Strongly consider climate control if you live in an area with extreme humidity.
WHEN & How Long You’re Storing Matters
Knowing when and for how long your belongings will be in self storage is an important factor when deciding if you need climate control. If important items like your family photos will be in storage for several months and could be exposed to extreme temperatures, it’s best to be cautious and protect your belongings by renting a climate-controlled storage unit.
