The bottom or top I say top with a bottom exhaust so it draws the mist passed them and the co2 will stay at the bottom by exhaust,

bottom. pull or blow the air up if you want to use a forced air setup. if co2 is a concern you are nowhere near getting enough fresh air.

Mist what? Mist the cakes/substrate directly until they glisten, then fan out the chamber...always mist then fan.
If this was tru don't u think we would all be dead by the co2 that sinks?
CO2 does not settle out of air.

That sentence makes no sense. If you're attempting to ask if a humidifier should be at the bottom or top, that's been answered a few hundred times already. Humid air is lighter than dry air so it rises, thus the humidifier should always be at the bottom of the unit. The humid air will rise to the top and take the stale air and CO2 with it and out the upper vents.
Don't ever get the idea that CO2 is heavier than air, thus it will collect at the bottom or 'drain' out the bottom. It does not. RR

Did not know this , I don't just take people's advice unless I know why this settled why.
