All Fittings are not created equal: Understanding how air moves around corners and it’s relationship to the overall performance of the distribution system. •What is Static Pressure and how does it relate to the size and air flow of the air distribution system?
•Equivalent Footage:
Why using the wrong fittings will slow the air.
How to determine correct fittings for smooth airflow.
•Understanding and using an Air Duct Calculator.
•Flexible Ductwork: Good? Bad?
How does compression come into play?
•Ovalizing Sheet Metal Ductwork.
Will it handle the same airflow as round?
•What are the effects of insulating your air distribution system?
•What are the effects of sealing your air distribution system?
