Looking for a bit of experience here. I was wondering what the ideal placement would be for supply vents and returns for a cathedral room.

15 ft to the peak....8ft walls on the side.


Is it better to have the supply vents at say a 10 ft height angled down?

Would really love to get some insight in the set up for this kind of room.

Thanks

what climate are you designing for, warm or cold?

a 10' heigth at inside wall blowing toward the outside wall. a high and a low return would be nice but if you only put one up high only you may have a drafty floor in the winter

< 11 feet. However, I would worry more about flow
Quantity for perhaps an unusual heavy load like a cathedral ceiling.
