Air dump

Anyone installed an A\C air dump in the ceiling of unit that does not use one. Need to know how to locate air distribution box in ceiling to open it up. My system is quiet cool. I don't think it is a good system

Quiet yes - cooling no. Thanks
  • I don't know what you have so I don't know if my story helps, but I have done this. The original AC system in a prior TT did not have anything but the vent system. I wanted to be able to dump the air straight down without using the vents. I went online and looked up my model AC and found out you could buy a replacement AC cover that included vents (mine was solid and did not) that would allow the air to go straight down when open and thru the vent system when closed. Replacement AC cover cost about $60 and took 10-15 minutes to install. Threw the old AC cover without the vent system away. Bottom line - try to research your AC model number and see what covers may be available that have vents built in. Good luck.
  • Right idea. I need to find where to cut ceiling to tap into cold air. My system has vents only and I want an air dump. Thanks
