    Not sure what your saying? I have a plenum in the floor, inch smaller both ways than the outside dimensions of the fan coil. 1" folded out on the floor. When I came back, I measured it up, made the base, 24 ga, to cover the plenum on the bottom, then to fit the fan coil at the top of the transition. Outlet on the fan coil is only 11 deep, I made this one 18" deep. It tapers back. Usually try and get it off the floor at least 6". This one was taller because my filter sticks out a few inches past the fan coil, I wanted it up high enough someone wouldn't rack their cranium.

    Yup this is what I do too.

    Beautiful install.

    They primered the house after drywall. A little dust on it is all. Still pretty clean.

    Very impressive. And you're right, it will probably never be that clean again. But that's Ok, that's more job security on your part when you have to go back and repair a part that was damaged because the owner didn't keep things clean and dust free.

    Very nice work!! As a service tech, I appreciate seeing all the manuals left where they will do the next guy some good. We started installing a metal file box for all paperwork on the drop of our installs, seems like manuals tend to
    " walk-off " when left laying around. H/O always puts them somewhere, then forgets where!! Again, very nice work.

    Mastic in the crawl. Most every joint you see here, base to floor, fancoil to base, transition to fan coil, filter to transition, filter to duct has foam tape on it to seal it. A good slip and drive joint doesn't really leak much. Ill sometimes silicone the corners of some pieces if there are holes with some silver silicone. Got 1/8x1/2, 1/8x1 and 3/4x1 foam tape on the truck. Nice stuff, use alot of it.

    The 1 1/2" to 3" reducer was left by the plumber,

    Kinda like that large pvc reducer the drain fits in.

    Do you use mastic in careful caulk gun on all the seams?
