Peoples Theatre Roanoke Rapids Adopts Modern Air System

The newly built Peoples Theatre in Roanoke Rapids installs a state of the art air conditioning system used by major New York theatres. It delivers 90 000 cubic feet of conditioned air per minute, vastly surpassing the old system and features silent motors, water washing, and well water cooling. The setup includes six outlets and concealed ducts, offering constant fresh air with automatic temperature control. Patrons are assured of comfort in hot weather despite the system’s great capacity. Notable names associated with the installation include W. D. Holoman and several Pierce family members among others.
