both :D

devotees to either warm or cold way will support their cause with vigour

me,i run my frames east to west so the winter cluster moves south to north ACROSS the frames, so it depends which way the entrance faces whether the frames are cold way or warm way

East to west frames is supposed to stop isolation
 
Note that most hives the world over are by default cold way, and it is only the square National/Commercials in the UK that offer the choice.
