Ductwork FAQ’S
What are the other alternatives for metal ductwork?
There are alternatives to standard sheet metal, such as fiberglass, fiberboard, and flexible ducts.
However, metal ductwork remains the most popular choice due to its fire resistance, durability, ability to clean, and overall performance.
A section of my ductwork is damaged. Can you replace a section?
Although it depends on the severity of the damage, metal ductwork can be repaired if it sustains damage.
Repairs may involve sealing leaks, replacing areas of ducts, or strengthening strained areas. Hiring sheet metal professionals for ductwork repairs ensures proper techniques and materials are used.
What regulations or standards govern metal ductwork installation?
Industry standards and building codes dictate the design, installation, and maintenance of metal ductwork. Organizations like Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association (SMACNA) provide resources to ensure duct systems meet safety, efficiency, and performance requirements.
Standard sheet metal
