This is a "DuctSox" we installed in a factory. It is 36"X 200"

This is a good forum. I'm a ham and proud of the work that my "Green Mt. Boys" put out so I'll probably be posting here alot. "If you can't say something good, don't say nothing at all."

Break out an iron and get those wrinkles out. :D Just kidding, it looks very nice Benne.

I considered a ductsox job but decided against it when they told me the lifespan was 10yrs. and the warranty was 2yrs.

[Green Mountain]

Well chuck, it gets all hard and the wrinkles go away when you use it. Hmmmmm.....

Steve, the customer requested DuctSox because they have one in the older part of the plant and it been hanging there for 20 years. I guess it all depends on the application.

Benncool,I never seen ductsox before,till you
reference that same pic acouple months ago.
Neat... keep the pics flowing.No pun intended.

Bencool, what are ductsox and what applications are they used in?

[mattm]

Does that come in denim? Maybe call it a ductpantleg. Looks nice.Is the function insulation?

[Green Mountain]

Ductsox can be used any place where exposed ductwork in not objectionable. It does come in designer colors. They probably do make an insulated version.

The advantage is labor savings. After the cables are in place it only took 20 minutes to hang 200 ft of duct.

So that is actual duct. I was thinking it was a covering of some sort. That would cut alot of labor.

I've seen them around here in green house up here.. Looks pretty cool, and i would also think it will give an even air flow pattern across the area the holes are facing.

See what a great idea this forum is. I'm interested.
I must ask about fire rating. In a factory it usually
is a big issue.

With all those holes, the duct leakage must be terrible...LOL :D:D:D

I can remember that it had a UL label on it. But I'm sure if you call the factory and give them the specs of a job they will head you in the right direction.

One thing I must say is that the factory people were super in giving us the information that we needed both in the design and installation.

Thanks for the tip ben. I'm quoting [2] 26" ductsox systems for my churches gymnasium. Should be sweet. If I do it, I'll post a picture for you.
