This course is designed to help you get the best use out of the ACCA Manual D approach to duct sizing calculations.The content of this course is designed to teach the principles and procedures of duct design developed by ACCA. It will cover duct design myths and explore best practices developed by decades of experience in the field by your instructor. Learn to size duct like the pros and how to identify a poorly designed duct system when you see one!
HVAC Mysteries Unveiled:
- Duct Design Dilemmas: Are you installing duct systems without proper design? Are they choking your brand-new equipment to death?

- Sealing Snafus: Can duct sealing undersized ducts guarantee system failure? Which components are at risk?
- Leaky vs. Sealed Ducts: Will a new system run better on leaky ducts or sealed ducts without redesign?
- Return Air Riddles: How do undersized returns kill performance?
- Bernoulli and Coanda’s Legacy: What do old guys like Bernoulli and Coanda have to do with modern HVAC duct design?
- Commercial vs. Residential Air: Is there a difference in duct design methods? Are we using the wrong methods on residential projects?
- Bermuda Triangle of Ducts: What does the Bermuda Triangle have to do with your duct installations?
