Bob Reid has 40 years of experience in ductwork fabrication, HVAC sales and design. He works for Spiral Pipe of Texas in Business Development & Engineering.
I recently received a somewhat anxious call from a friend in the sheet metal industry. He won a nice duct order, but his submittals were being rejected because he needed to provide published performance data for his duct fittings.
Team Sheetmetal, Inc. uses the new PhenoliDuct system from Spiral Pipe of Texas to address the needs of a rooftop duct system on Texas A&M University’s Haas Hall.
You might think that any duct installation is a team effort, and you would be right. There has to be a fair amount of coordination between installers, fabricators, vendors and other contractors for a project to be done right and on time.
Managing design, fabrication, installation and expectations are all important factors in successful exposed ductwork installations. But many contractors overlook one simple task.
Duct systems leak. HVAC construction contractors, duct manufacturers and sheet metal products manufacturers have always acknowledged that duct systems are not 100 percent airtight.
