Stale Air Return - Viability of Option
Try to keep this simple. First off I am aware of the need for stale air returns, I know it is commonly referred to as cold air return, however as is use is more for the recycling of air I will use my term. Known fact (IIRC) is that when heated or cooled air goes into closed room then there must be a return or the value of that air is non-existent as the room will always be cooler or warmer than other rooms depending on season, example room will be cooler in winter if heat is called for and vice versa in summer.
Attached photo refers:
1 - Last two rooms in my new home is now being completed, but with a suspended ceiling as opposed to drywall (arms and back can no longer do overhead work).
2 - This is the return duct, 6" that has no branches and I assume the builder (20 years ago) left it this way to circulate the air at this end of the house.
3 - Other areas, at this end (washroom and hall), are already vented with their own returns.
Question - Would it suffice to just install a ceiling lighting grid panel in each of these rooms to vent the rooms as this duct is in the ceiling rafters? Ceiling Grid:
