RECTANGULAR DUCT WORK

What is Rectangular Ducting? Rectangular ducting refers to a specific type of ductwork utilized in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems for air distribution throughout a building. Its defining feature is its rectangular shape, which offers a greater surface area for airflow compared to round ducts. In the HVAC industry, rectangular ducts are the most prevalent and cost-effective option. They are straightforward to fabricate and install, making them a practical choice for general ducting needs. Unlike more specialized duct-making machinery, such as lock formers, these ducts can often be constructed using manual labor.

Typically, rectangular ducts are preferred in closed false ceilings, as they can be concealed while maintaining the aesthetic of the space. These ducts are versatile and can be utilized for a variety of applications, ranging from air conditioning to exhaust and ventilation systems
