Suspended ceiling
I am installing a suspended ceiling in the basement and I do not want to use
Drywall to conceal the HAVC. The new suspended ceiling would be about 10" above the bottom of the HAVC. I was thinking of using the suspended Ceiling wall angles, main beams, tees, etc. to wrap the HAVC (3 sides). Is this a good way to accomplish this. If not, any other ideas? |
