Check ceiling grid height against duct elevation before hanging. The grid is where bad elevations become obvious.

Open in Field Rescue Open category

Field checklist

Find finished ceiling height.
Check duct BOD/TOD/centerline.
Include insulation/flanges/access.
Compare with lights/diffusers/sprinkler.
Ask before hanging if the run is tight.

Ask foreman

Does this duct elevation clear the finished ceiling grid and access needs?

Do not

Do not hang duct where the ceiling grid cannot fit below it.

Why it matters

Ceiling conflicts usually show up after the duct is already hard to move.
