Heated Storage: Do I Need It?
Many people are under the assumption that they need heated storage. The truth is, there aren’t many items that need to be placed in a heated unit. Here at Medicine Hat Storage, we’ve decided to prevent the guessing of “should it or shouldn’t it” by compiling a list of items that need heated storage below.
- Wood (oak, cherry wood or other expensive woods that shouldn’t be in damp or dry areas)
- Family heirlooms or antiques
- TV/Computer Screens (follow our link for more information: Televisions and Storage )
- Leather furniture
- Musical instruments (cold temperatures can change the tuning of the instruments)
- Paintings and other expensive art
Do you see something that’s not on the list and you’re still concerned? Give us a call, we’ll help you find the appropriate storage for your needs!

Note: These are the ranges of the brands if you’d like a specific model information please contact them directly as it may vary. It is greatly recommended from all companies to acclimate your television after taking it out of storage. This means letting the television warm up to room temperature for 24 hours before plugging it in and using it.
