According to the National Electric Code (NEC) a plenum is a "compartment or chamber to which one or more air ducts are connected and [which] forms part of the air distribution system." In other words, the open space above your ceiling extends above other rooms in the same building or is open to ducts that connect it to other parts of the building. In a plenum ceiling air can circulate through the air ducts to the whole building. See similar questions...

In building construction the space used for air circulation is called the plenum. This space is also often used to route communication cables. This poses a serious hazard in the event of fire due to lack of barriers to contain the smoke and flames. Because of this, various fire codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC) require the use of fire resistant and low smoke producing cable in these spaces. See similar questions...

It is a limit on the amount of taxes you must pay on your residence. If you qualify your home for a 65 and older or disabled person homestead exemption for school taxes, the school taxes on that home can't increase as long as you own and live in that home. The tax ceiling is the amount you pay in the year that you qualified for the 65 - and - older or disabled person exemption. The school taxes on your home may go below the ceiling but not above the amount of the ceiling. See similar questions...

Heating coils in the ceiling can work very well. Some issues to think about are that the work is often inaccessible and heat losses upward can be high unless extra insulation is added. You would lose the comfort advantage of warm floors, but a radiant ceiling application is nevertheless very comfortable. Furniture placement is not affected. See similar questions...

When BR was shown as part of the "Los Angeles at the Los Angeles" film series in 1990 at the Los Angeles Theater, Ridley Scott was asked after the screening about the prevalence of fans in his work and their possible meaning.

Try to take a number of samples (5) in multiple locations. The ceiling material is man-mixed and thus you could miss the detection of asbestos in "this spot" when it might be one inch over in "that spot". Place the samples into a zip lock food storage bag and send it to the laboratory with a check for $35.00. Include your name and address, telephone number and fax number (if you have one). Any contractor with workers must follow OSHA rules. OSHA requires that no employee be exposed to asbestos. See similar questions...

During renovation, a very nice, hard-working guy named Matt was checking the ceiling's perpendicularity with his horizontal plumb-bob, when a black hole suddenly opened just above his head. The next thing we knew, Matt had had been sucked into what turned out to be a worm hole in the time-space continuum. Good thing Art's hobby is theoretical astrophysics, or we'd never have figured this out. The sky panel, which sports the twelve signs of the zodiac, is there to prevent a recurrence.

First, there's an investment in hardware and wiring. You need to have N motes attached to an N-port serial multiplexor (or a computer with N serial ports). All the motes need to be wired for power as well. This part can be time-consuming and expensive. Our 55-mote ceiling array cost on the order of $10,000, not including the costs of the motes themselves. This is just the cost of the serial multiplexors, cabling, and our custom serial and daisy-chained power board. See similar questions...
