Aluminium
flexible ducting can be used to connect all your ventilation items
together to create a sealed passage that will allow the air to travel
through it in the direction of the flow of the fan, either supplying or
extracting air from the room.
When installing your aluminium ducting make sure to keep your runs
taught and with as little bends as possible, as too many bends will
greatly reduce your flow of air. Aluminium ducting can be connected
with duct tape, foil tape or for the best solid fixing we recommend you
use a jubilee clip.
Combi flexible ducting is manufactured using a P.V.C. Outer coating and
aluminium inner layer with a high tensile steel wire helix. Fully
flexible and capable of handling high pressures and temperatures of up
to 140 degrees Celsius, combi ducting is a great and cost effective
choice for the conduction of air.
Combi Ducting is completely airtight and no dust will collect in your
ducting as long as you ensure it is fully extended on installation. The
combination of aluminium polyester and PVC layers gives extra strength
and durability compared to other types of ducting such as foil ducting.
Our ducting is also very easy to install, lightweight and packed in
compact boxes for easy transportation. No special tools or cutting
implements are required to fit this ducting and in the event of a fire
none of the materials used in the production of this ducting will
release toxic gases.
Acoustic Ducting is used to reduce the noise made by
ventilation fans in growrooms and industrial areas.
It's made from a perforated inner core that's identical to our Standard
Ducting but with lots of small holes punched in it - this is then
wrapped in a layer of glass-fibre and sealed by another layer of
aluminium foil. As the air travels down the inner core the sound is let
out through the holes into the glass-fibre, which deadens the sound.
In practice it reduces the noise of a fan by around 60%-80%, and is
almost always used with fans of 150mm and above although all sizes of
fans benefit from it's use.
