California has estimated the average residential duct loss there to be
in the 30% range. Based on what we see in NY that seems reasonable to
me.

Sounds about right. In the winter in NY here the one side of the house
nearest the furnace blows out 120F while the other end of the house blows
out 90F.

in the 5 to 10% range...not so good actually)
