Basement Cold Air Return Duct & Vent Size?
Looking for some help sizing the a return air vent in my basement. I am currently in the process of finishing my basement and I am looking to run a return air vent to the floor in my 2x4 walls. Wondering what size duct and vent I should be using? There is currently a return air vent on the main trunk, located on the ceiling of the basement that will be closed into a mechanical room. I plan on closing this up when the new return air vent is added. Here is some more info for detail. Thanks!
- Basement is 500 sq/ft
- 4 supply vents currently installed (6" duct 10"x 6" vents)
- Home is 1700 sq/ft without basement with cold air returns in every room
