October 27, 1928 EXHIBITORS HERALD and MOVING PICTURE WORLD 61 half tone. A 10 degree rise above the tuning temperature will cause the same pipes to become sharp and further rise puts many of them out of pitch. The effect of dampness is to cause a swelling and consequent deterioration of wooden chests, pipes and other parts in the chambers. Since organ chambers are not standard in size the amount of heating equipment must be determined for each chamber. The larger the chamber or the greater the area exposed outside walls, the larger must be the wattage of the heater installed. Heaters should be mounted near the bottom of exposed or outside wall so that rising warm air from heater will counteract the descending columns of chilled air. Thermostats should be located at the point the best circulation takes place and out of reach of direct heat from heaters. In large theatres operating afternoon and evening heaters are usually left in operation 24 hours. In smaller houses they may be disconnected when the show is over and started again by simply throwing a switch when needed. Prices range from $48 to $110 per set.
