Any other guidance? I will probably look to get this installed in February.

Yeah it's been a dream of mine for 20 yrs to have my own dedicated theater. I'm doing most of the work myself and subbing out some of the bigger trade jobs like electrical and HVAC. I'll probably...

336741 Here is the floor plan for the new addition. All of the doors will be either exterior, weatherstripped doors or interior, solid core,...

I think zoning is necessary because half of the upstairs is a bedroom, bath abd game room over my garage and a few downstairs bedrooms. The remainder will be an 18x30' theater that will have 4 doors...

This space will all be above conditioned space. There will be two 30" windows in the space. 2 ton seems to be small. What would you consider properly finishing it? I agree one return will...

I assume you're referring to a mini split. I don't want to go that route. I need to keep the noise from this unit down and I don't want to see the unit in the room. Also, I don't think my HOA...

Huh? Care to elaborate?

Guys,
I'm a newbie here so give me a little leash on my request. I know enough to be dangerous about HVAC. I am currently in the process of working on finishing out my 2nd floor attic which is...
