Step Down Diffusers go by many names; Lay-ins, Cone Diffusers, or even T-Bar Diffusers. The term 'T-Bar' comes from the shape of the railing that holds the ceiling tiles in a drop ceiling. The railing forms a grid of squares and T-Bar Diffusers are designed to fit, or 'lay-in', those grid squares. The 'cone' shape of the diffuser allows for a maximum volume of airflow into the air-conditioned space.
