Supply Vents

[Alan]

Hi everyone,

 

Currently in the process of planning our MVHR and have come across an issue i hope you can help me with.

Where/how do you place the supply vents in bedrooms that have vaulted ceilings? The other aspect to consider is that the Timber Frame Company will be supplying/installing a Closed Panel System for the roof and external walls. Initially i thought i could use the partition walls but now don't think they're deep enough to accommodate the unit and ducting.

Could you make the internal walls a bit deeper to accommodate the ducting and vents?  The supply vents tend to be located at the opposite end to the doorways.

Or use coanda effect supply valves to throw the air across the room.  The air follows the ceiling for about 4 to 6m, then descends and comes back across the room and out the door.

Just drop in a service void at the ridge. 200mm should be more than enough. Run the ducts along the ridge and then down a service cavity to the manifold.

 

This is ours. Still have 3.4m ceilings. We had to have one anyway to cover over the ridge beam.
