Plaster in diffuser mimimum disdtance from corner. Any ideas?

[Wookie_73]

Hi all.

Running my ductwork and installing plenums currently.

I have a plenum that due to lights getting in the way is currently tucked in a corner.

It will eventually have a Ergovent diffuser attached, as shown in the link.

I currently feel it is too close to the corner of the room at 200mm from the centre to each wall.

But I am a bit stuck for space due to lights/ joists etc.

 

Any views?

 

Cheers Dave

That type of vent will tend to blow the air vertically downward, so being close to the wall probably won't be a major problem (unless the installation instructions say otherwise). Though unless you have a tiny room I'd imagine that there are some other options.

Yup. Leave it there, install the nice plaster-in one as shown, and go put the kettle on. 😉. You ‘may’ notice a bit of a dust line over 6-12-18 months of operation, but if you use a Ken Dodd stick to keep those walls clean as preventative maintenance I seriously doubt this is any issue whatsoever.

 

’twill be fine
