Bought a furnace for 3k ft cottage which I have constructed. I baulked
at the contractors pricing for ductwork(double the cost of furnace ) .
Contractor will install and hook up furnace and has drawn up a duct
design with register locations and duct sizing. Looking for reference
material, web or otherwise on abc's of ductwork installation for DIY ers

Oh man, brace yourself: this should be interesting... not too many DIYs
'round here--many HVAC pros, though, and I expect the swearing to begin
in aprox. 1 hour... : )

Peace, Dan

PS. Buy all three tin snips (yellow, green, red) and some nice, thick
suede gloves...

Perhaps a lot of the ductwork should have been installed while the rehab
was in progress.

The ductwork has to be done properly or it will cost you a ton, in many
areas, over the years.
