Choosing a climate-controlled storage unit offers several benefits, especially when it comes to storing your valuable and sensitive items. Here's what you should consider when deciding whether you need a climate-controlled storage unit:
(1) Protection from Texas Weather
Living in Wichita Falls, you're no stranger to those hot summer days and cold winter nights. Our climate-controlled buildings maintain a temperature between 50 and 80 degrees. If you plan on storing wood or leather furniture, photographs, business or personal records, musical instruments, electronics, or any other delicate items, you should consider a climate-controlled storage unit. These self storage units help prevent damage such as cracking, swelling, or melting from extreme temperatures.
(2) Ideal for Long-Term Storage
If your stay with us might be on the longer side, climate-controlled conditions ensure that your belongings will stay in top condition over time. Having your storage unit inside a climate-controlled building also cuts down on that red dust that seems to find its way into everything!
(3) Electronics
Laptops, TVs, computers, and other sensitive gadgets can collect moisture when there are large temperature shifts. Having a consistent and moderate temperature range helps to mitigate this risk. A tip from the pros: put a few silica packs (the little packets you find in packages) in the containers with your electronic items for some added protection.
(4) Business Storage Solutions
Businesses storing inventory, equipment, or important documents can benefit from a climate-controlled space, ensuring that important assets and record keeping remain intact and undamaged. Electronics, extra inventory, or archived documents all require a stable environment to prevent deterioration over time.
