I need some HT design guru advice. The theater room is too hot, even in the winter before I run the equipment. Its kinda stuffy and stagnant in there.
There are two supply vents and one 12x18 return. The house is 2 years old and the HVAC works great everywhere else. The house is well insulated and the HVAC barely runs which is why I'm not getting good exchange in there.
The down stairs remains really cool most of the time. I don't think a zone system will work since I cant have the AC kick on in January when the room gets to be 80. Currently the Equipment rack is an in-wall which power ventilates into the room.
My proposed solution would be to add a ventilator with three supply lines of circulated air from down stairs to the room and one line to cool the equipment rack to another room downstairs...... I had planned to leave it on full time........
This is the fan

Here is a primitive diagram of whats going on..... The white 14x23 is the room interior all the lines, air handler, and ventilator would be in attic.....
What are the issues with this solution? Any suggestions on how to better exchange the air up there?
