Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this ducting be used in high-temperature environments?

This product is fire-tested for safety, but please refer to local building codes regarding maximum temperature ratings for PVC and polyester-based materials.

How do I cut the duct to the desired length?

The duct can be trimmed using a standard pair of heavy-duty shears or a sharp utility knife to cut the outer layers and the internal wire support.

Is this duct suitable for outdoor use?

While durable, it is primarily designed for indoor ventilation and extraction; prolonged exposure to UV light may degrade the outer PVC layer.

Does it come with mounting hardware?

No, the package includes the flexible ducting only. Clamps and mounting brackets must be purchased separately based on your specific fitting size.

What is the internal diameter of this specific model?

This model (GD356CO) has an internal diameter of 356mm.

Can I use this for clothes dryer venting?

We recommend checking your appliance's manual; however, many modern building codes mandate rigid metal ducting for dryer exhausts to prevent lint fire hazards.

Troubleshooting

Airflow feels restricted or weak

Check the ducting for kinks or tight bends that may be pinching the airflow. Straighten the duct and ensure it is fully extended.

Ducting is sagging in the middle of a long run

Install additional support straps or hangers to properly distribute the weight and maintain the duct's shape.

Vibration noise during system operation

Ensure the duct is securely fastened to the intake and exhaust points; loose connections often cause rattling and resonance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability due to multi-layer construction
  • Highly compact for storage when not in use
  • Smooth interior maximizes extraction efficiency
  • Enhanced safety with non-toxic fire-resistant materials
  • Easy to install around corners and obstacles

Cons

  • Requires proper support to prevent sagging over long distances
  • Flexible structure may be vulnerable to sharp punctures if handled carelessly
  • Not intended for extreme high-pressure industrial pneumatic systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward as the ducting attaches easily to both round and oval fittings. Simply slide the duct over the connection point and secure it using a standard duct clamp or high-quality adhesive tape. Because this product is manufactured with flexible laminates, it should not be stretched beyond its maximum 6-metre limit, as this may compromise the wall thickness. For long horizontal runs, use suspension straps every 1 to 1.5 metres to prevent sagging. Always ensure the duct is kept clear of extremely sharp edges that could tear the outer PVC layer. If cleaning is required, ensure the system is powered down and use a soft vacuum brush to remove internal dust accumulation.
