Duct sizing 

(continued)

Table 4

  Typical duct sizing for systems not over 100 feet equivalent length – round or rectangular galvanized 

Do not apply this table for duct systems over approximately 100 equivalent feet length. For longer systems or systems using 
other duct materials, refer to ACCA Manual D. Incorrectly sizing duct systems can result in unsafe or uncomfortable 
operation.
