Thanks,
He has 14'' round coming out of the air handler, At about 3 feet, one
zone breaks left about 10 feet to a damper, 10 more feet its reduced
down to 10'' for about 35 ft. One other 14'' breaks right to another
damper, and then reduced to 10'', these two zones supplies 3300 sq.
ft. At about 6 feet one 14'' goes about 90 feet upstairs to another
damper upstairs, it also reduces to 10'' to supply 900 sq.ft. He told
the inspector that he had the high speed set on 1850 cfm's on the
Intellizone. Does this make anymore sense? or no sense at all?
Thanks,RT
