Ceiling vent location in remodel.
We are remodeling the lowest living level of our 4 level split. The basement is the lowest level. The level we are remodeling in built on a slab and has the existing HVAC supply lines run through the slab. The supply lines are in very poor condition as very little air comes out of them. As a result, I plan to move the supply lines to the ceiling as I really do not want to go through all of the time and expense of busting up the slab and replacing the supply lines. There is an existing supply trunk that runs through the ceiling of the lower level, which supplies service to the upstairs. I plan to use this supply trunk for the ceiling branches.
My question is what is the best placement for the ceiling vents? Should they be located by the interior wall or the exterior wall? If interior wall, should they come from the ceiling or at the top of the all. If the exterior wall, how far from the wall should they be? I have included a picture of the layout of the lower level. The supply and return lines are located in the ceiling. |

How close to the toilet should the vent line be? I’m in the process of moving a toilet and am not sure if I need to extend the vent too. Currently, the vent line is about 6 inches from the toilet, and after I move the toilet it would be 2 feet. Thanks Scott
