Install Basement Ductwork Yourself! || E4 Finishing a Basement
In this DIY home improvement video series, I'll be finishing a basement step by step. This video will cover how to install basement ductwork yourself in your basement to supply heat to my room, but this video can also be used as a general reference for installing basement ductwork. Along the way you'll learn all sorts of great ductwork installation tips & tricks. Let me show you how to build a room in the basement!
When finishing a basement, you have to be sure to have a supply or two in every room. I already have a second zone in my basement as well as two return ducts, so adding a supply is a relatively easy job. It is also a good idea to have HVAC dampers at each supply, and I'll show you how to install HVAC dampers. I'll show you how to cut HVAC ducts and how to install HVAC to your basement. I would also recommend using aluminum tape on all of your HVAC joints to improve the efficiency of your HVAC system.
