Uses the same equal-friction math as the HVAC Ductulator app (standard air at 70°F). Pro modes are part of Foster Tools Pro, or get them in the iPhone app.

Estimate from standard equal-friction sizing for galvanized duct and standard air. It isn't a Manual J or Manual D design. Check code-required installs against your local mechanical code and a qualified HVAC professional. Terms
