Best Answer

The purpose of Ceiling Vents is to provide Ventilation in a room where it may be necessary, such as a Science Lab. Because gases generally rise (as they are hotter than the air and so less dense), they can escape out of the ceiling vents without causing any harm to people inside the science lab. They can also be used to help deal with a fire.

Why do you have exhaust vents in your ceiling?

When you say "exhaust vents in your ceiling" I assume you are referriong to the heating and AC vents inside your house and not the roof vent on the outside used to vent the attic. It is most likely that the duct work was ran in the ceiling for ease of installtion or the house may be built on a slab and they did not want to run the duct work through the slab.

Is it better to have vents in the ceiling or in the floor?

Does not matter. Air will displace naturally when pushed into a room from the vent. Vents and ducting are laid out according to the plans of the unit. That is the only reason for top vents and bottom vents. If you are speaking of the intakes, the same principal applies.
