--- Shaded boxes represent airflow outside the required 300-450 cfm/ton.
NOTES:
1. Airflow based upon dry coil at 230V with no electric heat, no filter.
2. Airflow is equivalent for front or bottom return configurations.
3. SCFM is nearly the same with cooling performance airflow, the gap is in the 1 to 2%.
The air distribution system has the greatest effect on airflow. The duct system is totally controlled by the contractor. For this reason, the contractor
should use only industry-recognized procedures.
Duct design and construction should be carefully done. System performance can be lowered dramatically through bad planning or workmanship.
Air supply diffusers must be selected and located carefully. They must be sized and positioned to deliver air along the perimeter of the space. If
they are too small for their intended airflow, they become noisy. If they are not located properly, they cause drafts. Air grilles must be properly sized
to carry air back to the blower.If they are too small, they also cause noise.
The installers should balance the air distribution system to ensure proper quiet airflow to all rooms in the home. This ensures a comfortable living
