When you’re putting items in a storage unit, there are a few that should be in a climate-controlled environment. This environment can keep humidity levels to a minimum, which can protect your belongings until they are removed from the unit.
- Furnishings
If
you have furniture that you want to store, then consider air
conditioned storage units in Naples, FL.
The controlled cooler temperatures can keep mold and mildew from
forming on the furniture. This environment can also decrease the
number of cracks and damage that could occur if the furniture is kept
in a unit that doesn’t have air conditioning.
- Electrical Components
Items
that are electrical, whether they are plugged into the wall or use
batteries, should be stored in air conditioned storage units in
Naples, FL. If these items are left in a unit that could have high
temperatures or that have high moisture levels, then they could be
damaged to the point of them not working when they are turned on
after they are retrieved.
- Paperwork
Any
important documents should be kept in a unit that is climate
controlled. Documents that have moisture on them tend to curl on the
edges. There can also be discoloration. If the documents get too wet
from excess humidity, then they could tear. Consider putting
documents in plastic sleeves so that they are protected. You can then
put the sleeves in a sealed tote or notebook to try to keep them
intact and as flat as possible so that they are in the best condition
when you remove them from the unit.
