ОглавлениеNon-metallic air ducts are made of synthetic materials: polyethylene, fiberglass, etc.
Polyethylene air ducts: are usually used in supply ventilation systems. When the fan is turned on, the duct (in the form of a sleeve) is inflated with air.
Fiberglass ducts: usually used to connect the fan and air distributors. They are stretched on a metal frame.
Vinyl plastic air ducts: used when moving air containing acid vapors, etc., causing corrosion of steel. The thickness of the vinyl plastic is 3–9 mm, connected by welding.
