piano tuning

Hi Guys, As far as the temp in the room goes. The piano respond to humidity more than the actual temp. It would be more a matter of personal comfort , I like my studio to be cooler 75 at the warmest, especially my control room where its always warmer because of equipement. All pianos are different. The thing is the shorter the strings are the harder it is to hear the beats because the sound dissipates in the air faster. Tuning a 9ft concert grand is always easier to get mopre precise because of the long strings. Also the actual string scale the piano is designed with makes a big difference. Similiar to different guitar string gauges and the bridge intonation effectes tuning.
