Yes I think if you wanted a whole system of soffits under the ceiling then use the square footage rule, right? But if you already have duct work installed in the attic then I would think that they have to be considered into what you want, especially if part of it isn’t getting enough air flow. So adding one or two soffits under the ceiling would make up for the ducts that aren’t working in the attic. Can you just say since I have two ducts that are not getting the correct airflow in the attic would I add 2 soffits under the ceiling? What if you don’t know how many ducts are not getting enough airflow? Maybe you could just add one and see if that takes the strain off of the rest? And if it does sort of then, maybe add another one into a room that isn’t getting enough airflow from the duct or maybe a room doesn’t have a duct to it at all. Instead of an actual duct inside of the soffit, could you cut some free cardboard to size and tape it together with duct tape as a mock duct and run it through there? Anyway, I have asked three different companies to put a blower on my system and one person agreed, but then his manager said that I would need to have everything reconfigured first.
