Ideal humidity and temperature

Ideal humidity and temperature are crucial for the optimal preservation of smoking pipes. To keep the pipes in optimal conditions, it is advisable to store them in an environment with a relative humidity between 45% and 55% and a constant temperature around 18-20°C. Excessive humidity levels can cause mold and wood deterioration, while too low humidity could lead to cracks or fissures. Similarly, extreme temperatures can damage the wood and other pipe materials. Maintaining the pipes in an environment with the right humidity and temperature conditions will help preserve them over time and ensure their longevity.
