HVAC Ductwork
PRE-INSULATED RECTANGULAR HVAC DUCTWORK
A simpler and more effective method for ductwork. Decreased energy use, CO2 emissions & costs with cutting edge HVAC ductwork.
The Kingspan Koolduct system comprises premium performance Kingspan KoolDuct panels, fabrication methods, coupling systems, a fabrication training program and a complete line of accessories to produce pre-insulated rectangular HVAC phenolic ductwork that can easily achieve SMACNA air-leakage Class 3.
Kingspan Insulation offers a complete product line providing all materials, tools and accessories necessary for the effective fabrication of phenolic ductwork for The Kingspan KoolDuct System.
The fiber-free insulation core of Kingspan KoolDuct panels (the duct wall material) minimizes the risk of loose fibers entering the airstream through the ductwork. This can provide better indoor air quality (IAQ) for building occupants compared with other insulants, which can produce loose fibers when in direct contact with the airstream.
Kingspan KoolDuct panels are available in 7/8'" and 1 3/16'" thicknesses with installed and out of package R-values of R-6.0 and R-8.0 (respectively).
Drainage Mat
DC14 Drainage Mat is a practical, economical method to handle water that penetrates exterior cladding. With drainage channels on both sides, it permits easy drainage for water and allows air movement between the siding and sheathing to help keep the wall dry. Because DC14 is made of extruded polystyrene (XPS), it has high moisture resistance and is not a food source for mold. The board is effective with fiber cement siding, wood siding, and foam-backed vinyl siding. It is ideal for drainage and drying behind stucco and stone veneers.
Roofing Cover Board
