[rodgersorgan] Re: keeping organs in tune.........

Hi.........

Just my 2 cents worth on the temperature subject.  In a perfect world we 
would like to have the air in the wind system and the ambient air that is 
near the pipes the same temperature.  Stability of tuning comes from the 
issues being the same.  If the wind being pushed through the pipes is ice 
cold and the organ space is warm, the organ tuning will wander.  Also true, 
if the organ wind is too warm relative to the ambient temperature by the 
pipes it will wander, just in a different direction.

As a general rule, if the blower draws air from the vicinity of the pipes the 
temperatures will balance out.  If the blower is in a deep basement of the 
church, it should have ductwork allowing for the supply air to come from near 
the organ.  Good luck.
