What About Duct Connections
Hello, What does the "duct" connection on the Packaged Heat Pump look like? Or how big/small/size/shape/material is the duct connection? What size/shape ducts (in the house) does it feed? Can the ducts from a Split Unit (or other kind of central furnace/air conditioner) be used? Where can i see pictures of the duct-work hooked up on a Packaged Heat Pump?

The "duct connections" for both look pretty much identical, it's just the
location that is different. See interspersed: -- Scott McDaniel InfoTrakker Software "Harry" :7501 wrote in message ...

Size depends on the needs of the space (as in, a Manual J caluclation) ... shape/material is up to the contractor, we use insulated round sheet metal ducts.

Not sure what you're asking here - do you mean you are scavanging ductwork from a split system, or are you changing out a split system with a package unit - but generally speaking you'll have to rework your duct system if you go from one system type to another. Going from split to package without reworking ductwork is always a bad idea ... either you have to oversize the equipment to get some form of airflow, or you have end up with poor performance.

Think he found someone that will sell him a heat pump over the net and cant figure out how to get a square to round that works.
