humidified by a process of passing the air through . fine sprays of water which removes from it dust and other dirt as well as obnoxious odors and gases. Systems of this type are generally referred to as "air washers."
The air is drawn in from the outside and then passed over heating coils so that it will not cause freezing of the water in the air washer. These coils are called tempering coils. The air then passes through a mist of water caused by a number of spray nozzles that create a dense fog, removing dust, odors, gases, etc. The air absorbs moisture from the spray and is cooled thereby. It then passes through a series of sheet iron baffles that remove all suspended and entrained moisture. The air next passes through the bank of heating coils that raise its temperature to the desired degree. From here it is distributed through a proper system of ducts to various parts of the theatre.

Aisle Lights
Aisle lights should be installed on every sixth chair standard in zig-zag fashion along aisle. Lights are placed at sufficient height from floor to properly illuminate same without disturbing reflection to screen or audience. 10-watt lamps are generally used. Practically all theatres today are installing aisle lights as a protection and convenience to patrons. In recent months a number of instances have been noted where aisle lights have been cast as part of the chair standard itself, the practice being carried out in the more elaborate theatres when the chairs are built to certain decorative specifications. Aisle lights sell for about $4.00 each, the price decreasing for j quantities.
