[Equest-users] windows on plenum walls

[Karen Walkerman]

I have found that this has to do with the system type you choose.  If you
have a central system such as VAV reheat, which serves many zones, you'll
get one plenum.  If you have PTACs, with one piece of equipment for each
zone, you'll have multiple plenums.
