Cold Water Misting Bad?

I have always heard that you should never mist your reptiles with cold water due to the chance of bringing on a resporatory infection, that the water should be warm to you if you spray your arm with it.

My husband is telling me that this is false and that he has seen our local reptile seller misting the animals directly with cold water.

I have been searching for info on this all night, is this true or false? Someone throw me a bone....
