Blower

Replacing the blower involves improving the electrical amperage supply, a new motor, and dehumidification of the basement area for the blower. Cost will be under $4,000.

Blower is actually a turbine, which turns 1100 RPM and supplies a strong wind.

Ascending through the Narthex staircase, the blower moves air through the distribution system, hidden behind the Johnson Organ façade. This is the wind for voicing of flue pipes, creating Diapasons, Vox Humana, tremulo and strings. The amount of wind entering the pipes is carefully adjusted to create the dynamic sound of the organ.
