* If register selected based on distance from register to oppo
site wall is unsatisfactory on account of size or pressure loss, it is
permissible to shift one or more spaces left or right in the tables to obtain a more suitable register. If requirements fall in Mnlr
space, select two registers in place of one and divide CFM capac ity between the two registers.
b Total pressure (static plu9 velocity) loss is based on FLAT FACE ADJUSTABLE BAR TYPE and does NOT include stackhead.
, c Values on the right of line A and A'should not be used in ap plications such as churohes, auditoriums, and concert halls.
# d Values on right of line B and B' should not be used in ap plications such as residential work, motion picture theaters, court rooms and schools.

WARM AIR CEILING PANEL SYSTEMS
Warm air ceiling panel heating systems utilize a false ceiling suspended 3}i in. from the ceiling joists which have previously been covered on the bottom with sheets of plasterboard. Special hangers are used to suspend the false ceiling or heating panel from the joists. Steel supporting rods are installed through these hangers and metal lath is attached to the rods. The lath is then plastered to a thickness of % in., making a completely sealed air space above the ceiling. Warm air is delivered to this sealed space through a standard warm air duct, installed in the usual manner. The air is then circulated over the entire ceiling being guided by sheet-metal baffles. After the air has passed over the ceiling, it is returned to the fur nace through a return air duct for reheating. The system is closed, and no air is introduced into the heated space from the panel. (See also Chapter 24, Panel Heating.)
Because a warm air ceiling panel system involves a different type of ceding construction, its installation is practically limited to new construc tion. Only automatically-fired and thermostatically-controlled furnaceblower units may be used with this system. The standard automatic heating controls consisting of a room thermostat, temperature limit con trol, blower control (fan switch), and primary control are all that are re quired. While warm air ceiling panel heating has particular advantages, in one-story utility room houses, it can be just as effectively installed in one- and two-story houses with basements.
Complete design and installation procedure is given8 in Manual 7-A of the National Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Association.
WARM AIR PERIMETER SYSTEMS
Perimeter heating is a method of heating residential and commercial buildings, with or without basements, in which warm air is (a) conveyed under the floor to warm the floor surface and (b) introduced into the rooms, preferably under the windows, at or near the floor, and delivered upward in diffused pattern blanketing the outside walls. The return air is collected through one or more grilles located high on the interior sidewalls or in the ceiling. Suggested procedures9 for the design and installation of warm air perimeter heating systems are given in Manuals 4 and 10 and in the ac companying work sheets10 of the National Warm Air Heating and Air Con ditioning Association.
The furnace may be either the down-flow or the conventional up-flow type. For basement-less houses the down-flow type is preferred since it requires a minimum amount of floor area and ductwork, and eliminates
