A heating and cooling load calculation of the space to be conditioned will give required cfm for for your application. Always size to the larger duct when utilizing ducts for heating and cooling. Heating does not require as many cfms as cooling does.
Yes KENRAD, thats right. I have dealt with 90% split systems for residential applications. I have not been able to offer lght commercial pack units with the higher eff. on the heating side of the system. I can imagine that there are some obstacles to this. I would like to be able to put high...
