Abstract:

Pianos can die from too much dryness or too much moisture. Enter Hendersonville inventor Allen M. Foote, who solved the moisture problem. Foote invented a miniature heating rod in 1947 to remove the excessive dampness out of pianos. He has subsequently sold over a million of the units worldwide.
