Return


Would a 14 inch return be ok for a 2&1/2 ton ac with a 3ton drive furnace, or would I need to adjust the furnace?

Re: Return


14" return should be plenty of air getting back to the furnace

Re: Return


Would 16" be better?? The reason I asked is because I increased my return from a 14x24 to a 16x 25, less noise and more air movement. seem to help, any opinions? Mine was a 2 ton unit.
