Folks, let me explain. This is a house that is ~10 years old, and
has
the original flexible duct. I hope to just replace the duct, and
perhaps the vents, so I don't plan on cutting any holes in walls and
ceilings etc., just perhaps install new vents and connect the duct
work to them.

Sounds simple to me.

First, install several lights. That one attic bulb isn't going to cut
it.

First, though, take out the existing ducting. A real PITA, since it
went
in
there when there was no roof on, but it isn't that hard to cut it into
small
pieces and hand it down the attic access stairs. Have a good supply of
Band-Aids and first aid supplies handy.


Excuse me? In my area, the attic duct runs were put in after the roof
was
on. Sometimes the shingles had aready been installed, making it even
hotter!

Now, if you're talking about the ceilings, no, they weren't in.



WHOOSH!

Sorry if you missed my point. I will type it again slowly .......

It's a tough job any way you go at it.


For you, maybe.
