Hi Samy, You can find Ez values in Table 6-2 (I'm pretty sure you already know this). Basically, you need to know if you are providing cool or warm air. If you have both systems, then heating is your worst case scenario. You also need to know your distribution configuration: ceiling/floor air supply and ceiling/floor air return. Then, use table 6-2 to find your system's Ez.
