So you’ve decided to rent a storage unit to store your collectibles and antique furniture. Before you rent a storage unit, you should know that not all are created equal. Many people are fine with basic storage, and it works just fine for most storage needs. However, in areas where heat is commonly an issue — as it is in Tempe — it’s a good idea to upgrade to climate-controlled storage. Climate control keeps units at a consistent temperature year-round to help protect valuable items from damage. Read on to learn more about the benefits of the climate-controlled storage Tempe has to offer. Protect Your Valuables Tempe is in a hot climate. During the summer, temperatures can reach 100 degrees or hotter. This triple-digit heat can often damage many items, especially items stored in spaces with no air flow. Wood furniture can warp and split. Musical instruments can crack. Even artwork, books, and paper products can turn yellow and warp. With climate control, however, you can keep your unit at a consistent temperature year round. Climate-controlled storage units are perfect for areas that experience extreme temperatures, and if you’ve lived in Tempe for some time, you know the temperatures can be extreme. By keeping the air at a consistent, cooler temperature, you can protect your valuables. Reduce Dust and Debris When you keep items in a climate-controlled storage unit, one of the benefits is that you keep them cleaner. This occurs because climate-controlled storage units are secured inside well-sealed buildings with well-circulated air flow. There are no windows, and the roofs, floors, and walls are well-insulated. Because many people don’t use storage units on an everyday basis, they don’t track in the dirt and debris that we track into our homes constantly. Therefore, you’ll notice that your items in storage units will be in great condition. This minimizes cleaning time when it’s time to take your items out of storage and maximizes the chance that your belongings will maintain their integrity. Better Air Quality Tempe climate-controlled storage units have another advantage over regular units. They are sealed tightly and circulate air on a regular basis, so the air quality is excellent. With our clean air ventilation, you will not experience the musty smell that you sometimes experience in some spaces with poor air quality. You don’t need to open your unit just to let fresh air in. The enhanced air quality in a climate-controlled unit makes it ideal for storing electronics, documents, and other delicate assets, helping to maintain their safety, freshness, and cleanliness.
