Product Information

Full details

Designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals alike, this 127mm combination flexible ducting is an ideal solution for efficient residential or light commercial ventilation and extraction systems. Its primary benefit is the combination of laminated aluminium, polyester, and PVC layers, which provide a robust, fire-resistant structure that promotes smoother airflow compared to traditional corrugated options. However, users should note that while it is highly versatile and easy to cut, proper support is necessary during installation to prevent sagging over long horizontal runs.

FAQs

Can I use this for a tumble dryer?

Yes, its fire-resistant properties and smooth interior make it suitable for extracting warm, moist air from tumble dryers.

Does it come with fixing clamps?

No, fixings such as clamps or tape are sold separately.

Is this suitable for outdoor use?

While durable, it is intended primarily for internal ventilation runs. If used outdoors, ensure it is protected from direct UV exposure and heavy mechanical impact.

How do I cut the ducting to size?

You can use standard heavy-duty scissors or a sharp utility knife to cut through the layers safely.

What is the maximum operating temperature?

While the material is fire-resistant, it should not be used for direct flue gas extraction from wood burners or high-heat commercial furnaces.

Troubleshooting

Airflow is restricted or noisy

Check the ducting for sharp kinks or crushed sections. Straighten the run to restore the smooth internal diameter.

Connections are leaking air

Ensure a proper airtight seal by using metal-backed ducting tape or high-quality worm-drive hose clips at every junction.

Ducting is sagging between support points

Add additional support brackets or straps to ensure the ducting remains as straight and taut as possible to prevent debris buildup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resists emission of toxic gases during fire events
  • Smooth interior maximizes extraction efficiency
  • Easy to install and cut to size without specialist tools
  • Compatible with both round and oval ducting profiles
  • Durable multi-layer construction

Cons

  • Requires proper support clips for long horizontal spans
  • Not intended for extreme high-temperature industrial exhaust
  • Only 6 metres in length, may require connectors for longer runs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply measure the required length, cut with standard utility shears or a sharp knife, and secure the ends using appropriate ducting clamps or metallic adhesive tape. Ensure all connections are airtight to maintain system pressure.

Compatibility: This model is 127mm in diameter and fits standard 127mm rigid and flexible connections.

Care: Periodically inspect the ducting for any kinks or signs of external damage. Because the material is flexible, avoid sharp bends that might crimp the internal diameter, as this creates resistance and places extra strain on your ventilation fan motor.
