All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel. 
 
Therefore, choose a supply system static pressure drop of 0.2 in. W.G. (Then, 
the return air system will also have a static pressure drop of 0.2 in. W.G.) 
Furthermore, we will assume that the static pressure drops for all registers in the 
supply system will be 0.1 in. W.G.  
 
This leaves a static pressure drop of only 0.1 in. W.G. for all the ducting between 
the outlet flange of the appliance to each of the registers. (We will assume that 
the pressure drop through any short piece of ductwork connecting a branch to a 
register is included in the 0.1 in. W.G. pressure drop of the register.) Now, the 
size of the ducting for each segment of the duct system can begin. 
 
For the branch of the duct system, which includes segments “A”, “B”, “C”, “F”, 
and “H”, the pressure drop cannot exceed 0.1 in. W.G. This branch of the duct 
system has two 90-degree turns. The total length of this branch is the sum of the 
lengths of each segment,

Using the flowrate, total length of the duct, and the pressure drop, the required 
size of the duct can be determined using the following equation.

This equation is applicable to standard air between 50 to 90 degrees F flowing 
through clean, round, galvanized ductwork with approximately 40 joints per 100 
feet. Using duct lengths in feet, flowrate in CFM, and pressure drop in inches 
W.G., the equation will calculate the required circular duct diameter in inches. (If 
it is desired to substitute rectangular duct for circular duct, refer to Table 7 for 
equivalent sizes.) 
 
Returning to the example, for a total length of 71 ft., a flowrate of 120 CFM (from 
the farthest register on segment “A”), and a pressure drop of 0.1 in. W.G., the 
required duct diameter is,
