Description
Cooltech Industries flexible duct is a high-quality, durable component designed for both domestic and commercial HVAC systems. It features a multi-layered construction that ensures effective air distribution while maintaining safety and longevity across various ambient conditions. The key to its durability lies in the layers bonded with a fire-retardant adhesive, which not only enhances its fire resistance but also ensures long-term performance in a wide range of environments.
Construction and Materials
- Metallised Inner Core: The inner core of the duct is metallised, providing a strong and flexible base that supports the structure while allowing for efficient airflow.
- Polyester Insulation: Surrounding the inner core is a polyester thermal insulation blanket. This insulation is manufactured to rigid standards, ensuring consistent performance in maintaining the temperature of the air being transported. The polyester material offers excellent thermal efficiency, helping to reduce energy loss and improve overall system efficiency. Can be supplied with different blanket thicknesses to achieve different thermal requirements including R1, R1.5 & R2
- Metallised Outer Fire Jacket: The outermost layer is a metallised fire jacket that provides additional protection against external elements and enhances the duct’s fire resistance.
