I did a move from the east coast to Arizona...in the summer! Temperatures must have reached 120-130+ degrees in the moving truck. All vinyl made the trip safe, happy, and unwarped. Don't forget, vinyl is shipped on trucks to stores (or to your home via internet sales) during the summer. Direct sunlight in a car is the real enemy (as I'm sure we've all found out through life's experiences. But heat & excessive humidity (real musty dampness) can cause mold, as Rives has mentioned. Happy Tunes!
Are records harmed from no air conditioning?
I have a house with no air conditioning. The temps sometimes reach low 90's. Will my records be harmed by these temperatures? I am keeping them out of the sunlight. Is there a known temp that vinyl can handle without warping or damage? Is there a storage method that is advised for warmer climates w/o air conditioning? Or am I worrying about nothing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
