G'day Peter
Somewhere on this site Marc Obrien posted a link on a ductulator he had designed.
If you can find it check it out.

You can also look through the Trane book store for educational material you can purchase over the net.
I have some of these and they are well worth the small amount money you will pay for them.

Re: house duct design infromation
You're nothing with a calculator if you don't know how to input everything and make a judgement of the results if they're somewhat in the expected region.
It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Programs can be dangerous, since you input data, and get data out. You need to know what the output data means, AND, if the output data is correct (or close enough).
Programs & calculators should only be used by someone who understands the process, whether it is pipe sizing, duct sizing, or selecting compressors.

Exactly right.... I completely agree.

Re: house duct design infromation
Excuse me chaps, i was under the impression the fella was asking for information on designing simple duct systems? NOT asking for a magical calculator.

I highly recommend obtaining a design manual from either Trane or Carrier for this. If you have not done this before, it would be prudent to have a qualified person review the selections and layout.
An ounce of prevention, is by far cheaper than saving a few dollars, pounds, euros or quid.
Hi botrous,
..we already discussed that and you know that I do agree with you completlyyyyyy
