Arrow Plenum a leaning tower...

Hi - just finishing a ductwork install for a geothermal system; their last day is tomorrow. I did some checking tonight and noticed that seams that should be taped aren't (obviously not a problem to fix) - but also that the plenum coming off the heat pump is leaning south about 15 degrees--very noticeably off-level.

All the ductwork is hooked in, so, it would be a problem to fix - but of course with a huge expense like this (completely new ductwork throughout; two zones), I want the job done properly.

Does anyone know if such an angle of imbalance in the plenum will be problematic over time?

Thanks for getting back...

Welcome to the forums.

I doubt the ductwork being crooked or off level would cause any problems.
It would be nice to have the seams sealed.

Some pictures would be helpful. http://www.doityourself.com/forum/el...-pictures.html

Probably not an issue. But makes you wonder what else could have not been done correctly.
