Choosing the Right Type of Pre Insulated Ductwork
Ductwork is an integral part of any heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system, and it can be found in a variety of different sizes and shapes. Choosing the right type of pre insulated ductwork can help to optimise the performance and durability of your ventilation systems.
Incorporating a pre-insulated duct into the modular construction process offers a number of time and cost-saving benefits. The insulated ducts are lightweight and can be easily cut on-site to adapt to changes in building design. They also eliminate the need for additional insulation installation and therefore reduce labour and materials costs.
Pre-insulated ducts are also a good choice for energy efficient building. The phenolic insulation offers high thermal performance with some of the best R-values available on the market and is resistant to heat transfer, helping to lower operating costs. Additionally, the aluminium facing on the inside of the ducts helps to prevent fungus growth and maintain a clean interior surface.
As well as offering a range of time and cost-saving benefits, pre-insulated ducts are a great option for reducing noise levels. This is achieved through the use of a special NETO glass fabric on the inner side of the duct which absorbs sound and keeps noise to a minimum, ensuring that building occupants are comfortable in their environment.
