DESCRIPTION
The Knauf KoolDuct® System is a pre-insulated, high performance air duct system for industrial and high-end commercial applications. The system uses a CFC-free phenolic foam board faced on both sides with reinforced foil. Patented, specially engineered, aluminum flanges are designed to connect the duct sections to assure a strong, tight closure.
APPLICATION
 |
 |
The Knauf KoolDuct System is used in commercial, residential and industrial applications. The ducting is versatile and can be installed internally or externally, and concealed above a false ceiling or visibly mounted. It is easily modified and repaired and can be fabricated on-site with non-powered tools.
