BOVEDA Humidification System for cello or bass

2-way humidification system for cello and double bass

Boveda's 2-way moisture control technology automatically protects your instrument from warping, cracks and other damage caused by insufficient humidification or excessive humidification. Boveda is the only true 2-way humidity control that adds or removes moisture when needed to maintain a constant relative humidity of 45 to 55% - the ideal climate for wooden instruments.

Each Boveda consists of a specially prepared saturated solution of pure water and natural salts. This saturated solution is contained in a water vapor permeable "reverse osmosis membrane". Boveda works on the scientific principle that certain salts mixed with water regulate the humidity naturally. Boveda's patents relate to the methods invented to make this scientific principle portable and practical for the requirements of packaging applications. Boveda only absorbs and emits cleaned water vapor through its semi-permeable membrane and does not damage the material through direct contact.

How to use:

BEFORE USING BOVEDA:

ALWAYS insert Boveda into a holder before using in your instrument case. The holder acts as a liquid barrier if a packet is accidentally punctured and extends the life of your Boveda packets. The patented interior material allows water vapor to pass through to your instrument. The exterior is soft, like a polishing cloth, so it doesn’t scratch your instrument.
DO NOT mix different Boveda RH levels including Boveda B49HA within the same instrument case.
DO NOT use other humidification products with Boveda in the same case because they will fight against each other and reduce the efficiency of Boveda.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS:

• Remove the clear overwrap from the packet. (DO NOT OPEN the Boveda itself.)
• Insert one (1) unwrapped Boveda into each pouch of each holder.
• Place in the case anywhere that allows for airflow and prevents puncture when you close the case.
• Close the case's lid. Always keep your instrument case closed when using Boveda.

PLACEMENT IDEAS:

• Into the sound hole
