Try to get some pictures. I heard somewhere that those organs had huge blowers. Some with maybe air driers and 8, 24x24 filters. Some with a lube oil console to lubricate the blower. I think it was the Crystal Catherdral. ????
I've got a coil replacement to do tomorrow. In warranty by 1 month on 5 yrs. But the thing that really got me was when I went in the basement there was a Pipe Organ, the whole thing like in a church. I hope he will let me get some pics cause I have never......... Said when he plays it they can hear it several miles away. House sits on a hill in the country.

Organ room
What a relief. I thought this was going to be about a room they kept organs waiting to be transplanted.
With pipe organs, the building is often planned around the instrument rather than vice-versa. I would have a hard time not taking an extra hour or 2 on the job just to check it out.
I believe in latent heat.
We have quite a few old churches with beautiful pipe organs in the area. I take care of the hvac in a number of these churches.
Players(organists) get upset if the temp isn't what it's supposed to be.. Most are on air now and a different weight of air (temp) puts them out of tune quickly apparantly. They can't practice when the building's in setback.
Is this a Fabreze moment? C.Y.D. I'm voting white elephant. 2¢.
Gruntly, I can imagine them being realy picky about the temperature. The sound frequency produced varies directly with temperature. We HVAC guys could really screw 'em up

A friend I worked with at Hewlett Packard is now some kind of lab tech. She worked in a lab that was associated with a hospital. It was called the "Gross Lab" and they did analysis on body parts that had been removed. She got to see plenty of cancerous breasts and lungs and all. The lab's name is appropriate.

Tha basment is taller than normal and he did say it was done that way for the organ. The tuner for church wanted the temp. in the sanctuary stable for 24hrs. before he tuned the organ. They speak in square feet of air too.

Some rich guy gave an organ to the Cathreal of Burlington. (150 miles north) back in 1930. By some engineering mistake when the organ arrived they couldn't fit it into the Cathreal. So they sent it down to our church in Bennington. (convention goers know that this church is right down the street from the hotel).
So we ended up with this beautiful organ. The weird part is that the Cathreal in Burlington burnt to the ground in the 1960's.
The great thing about this organ is that you see these ornate pipes in the front but behind them is a big room full of plain pipes. The room has a wall full of pnuematic dampers that face the church. The organist can control the dampers for tone.
Back a few years they had the organ rebuilt for the tune of $60,000.
Pipe organ in a house? Is this Vincent Price?

Heybob's Father, Hutch is his name. I hear tell he can play any organ anywhere. Supposedly is one of the best organ players from years back and has a name in the church organ business as a real good player. I also learned recently he is self taught. Like he can just hear and then play, doesn't need to read notes.
Plays with his organ anywhere? That's not very discreet. Oh wait maybe that's not what you meant.
Selfemployed, thx for the pics. I wish my basement was like that. If I had a basement. But the scenery here does match that fer sure.
