Use turning vanes whenever the duct makes an abrupt turn, especially in the return
air duct. Poor return air distribution will reduce the moisture removal.

Figure 4 - Typical In-Ground Duct Layout
• You may use galvanized sheet metal ducts for all but underground installations and
severely corrosive environments.
• Do not use fiberglass duct boards or acoustic duct liner for air distribution in highly
humid applications, such as pool room dehumidification.
• If a duct must be installed in an unconditioned area, or if you are installing an
outdoor air intake duct, insulate it with two inches of fiberglass duct wrap with an
intact vapor barrier.
• Direct the supply air toward skylights, exterior walls and windows, and spectator
areas. Since air movement will increase the evaporation rate of the pool, direct
the supply air grilles away from its surface.
