Recommended Standard Sizes
.
For the purpose of simplification and standardization, selected com binations of commercial sizes of warm air pipes, return air pipes, ducts, grilles, fittings, and .registers are designated as Combination Numbers. The numbers assigned and the; combinations selected as standard are listed in the following tables *.
. .Table !--Combination Numbers 1 to 5--First Story, Warm Air Ducts and Registers.
Table 2--Combination Numbers 11. to 16--Second Story Warm Air Ducts, Single Wall Stacks, Fittings, and Registers.
Table 3--Combination Numbers 21 to 24--Second Story Warm Air Ducts, Double Wall Stacks, Fittings, and Registers.
