Our furnace and air conditioner duct systems are all designed at .1 ESP (external static pressure) which insures that you get the most efficient duct work system money can buy. When you size the ducts too small many bad things start to happen right out of the gate. If you are forcing the blower motor to work harder by forcing it through small duct work that was designed and installed to small you compromise the longevity of the motor as well as the furnace and the ac compressor not to mention the added utility costs because the motor is working harder. Here’s why… When you try to get heat through too small of a duct it backs up causing higher temps in the furnace. Think about when you blow on your food when it’s too hot. Same principle., When your furnace can’t move enough air it remains hot and that’s problems for the heat exchager., the most expensive part of your furnace. There are all kinds of other problems that we won’t discuss today but believe me there are many. Them there is the ac side of the duct system. When you are not moving enough air across the coil you send liquid refrigerant back to the compressor and that is the #1 killer of compressors in America today. It is not only important to size ducts correctly for keeping your utility costs down and protecting the longevity of your heating and cooling equipment but it is equally important to be comfortable in your home or business. This is the single most influencing factor to the comfort level your heating and cooling system will achieve. If the duct work is sized right and laid out correctly you’ll do fine. Mess up here and you will be miserable in the rest of your systems life!
