3. Install Ductwork

Good duct practices should be followed for all
ductwork. All ductwork should be installed in
accordance with SMACNA and AMCA guidelines,
NFPA 96 and any local codes. Reference the CAPS
submittal for ductwork size and location.
The use of a duct adapter is recommended on a
downblast (DBC) arrangement to align the ductwork
with the supply unit. The duct adapter is only a guide
and is not to be used as a support for the ductwork.
