Carriages Conservation

Carriages are made up of a variety of materials. Some of these materials will need a museum environment and some will be just fine in an unheated carriage house. Probably the best middle ground is to keep relative humidity below about 75% as a happy medium. This will keep the worst of the mould and insects under control whilst allowing for the carriages to be kept in an authentic carriage shed. All humidistat and an electric heater suffice.
