Owens Corning EnDuraGoldTM, Rigi Duct, duct wrap and pipe insulation have been contributing to energy conservation, noise control and indoor air quality performance of residential and commercial heating, ventilating and air conditioning duct systems for more than 40 years.

Fiber glass insulation in air duct systems can help to save energy, cut heating and cooling costs, and help make the interior environment comfortable.

Fiber glass insulation inside air ducts absorbs noise--whether it’s traveling along the duct from central air equipment or coming from nearby rooms. It also soaks up noise caused by expansion, contraction and vibration.

Fiber glass duct insulation can contribute to the quality of the indoor environment too. Properly installed in a well-maintained duct system, clean, dry Fiber Glass insulation won’t support mold growth or take significant moisture from the air. Tests show that rooms served by Fiber Glass insulated ducts have no more fibers in the air than are usually found in fresh outdoor air.

The products Owens Corning sells each year are responsible for the prevention of more than 1 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions. This equals the annual emissions of 200 million passenger cars or the use of 2 billion barrels of oil. We are committed to increasing our net positive impact on the planet.

According to a study by the Harvard University School of Public Health, insulating existing homes to current standards would save 800 trillion BTUs each year, which is equal to 76 supertankers of crude oil.

Using Owens Corning fiber glass duct board 475/800 series as the main material and auxiliary materials such as pressure / thermal sensitive adhesive tapes, clasp nails, etc., Owens Corning EnDuraGoldTM Duct System able to be made directly at the construction site, is a high-performance heat insulation air duct system of light weight and great health benefit. Following UL181A standard, the product realizes perfect combination of thermal and acoustic performance with stable air flow.

Owens Corning EnDuraGoldTM Duct System allows quick and easy making of square and rectangular air duct components such as direct duct, bend, reducing duct, boot-shaped duct, T-shaped duct, etc., and effective integration of such components into complete air transmission system for heat supply, ventilation, air conditioning purposes in various types of commercial, industrial and residential buildings.

EnDuraGoldTM Duct System

· Highly efficient heat insulation and energy conservation· Sound absorption for a quieter environment· Anti-bacteria and anti-mildew feature to ensure a healthy environment· Light weight to reduce load on the building· Quick making to shorten construction time

Owens Corning 475/800 fiber glass duct board series are the main materials for the EnDuraGoldTM Duct System. Such board is produced by using patent centrifugal technology to turn melted glass into fiber and then have it processed and cured with environmentally-friendly bond that contains thermosetting resin. The exterior of the duct board is covered with special reinforced overlay of great durability and fireproofness and the interior is coated with durable insulation material. At two ends of the duct board there are pre-made tongue joints of dual density with Shiplap Joint. There are also special reinforced aluminum foils and insulation materials available to meet with the needs of adding nails or socket connection for board extention.

HVAC APPLICATION

Fiber glass Rigid Duct Insulations are composed of glass fibers bonded together with thermosetting resin. They are manufactured in various stiffnesses, from flexible to rigid, although the rigid or semi-rigid forms are most suitable for insulating rectangular ductwork. Unfaced boards may also be used on duct and equipment exteriors, and can be field-jacketed.

These boards are also available withFoil-Scrim-Kraft (FSK) facing for application to the exterior of large ductwork or equipment where a neat finished appearance and vapor retarder performance are required.

Fiber glass Rigid Duct Insulations are intended for use in commercial, institutional, industrial and residential construction as thermal and acoustical insulation for the exterior of ductwork and mechanical air-handling equipment and tanks where abuse resistance is required.

The semi-rigid boards, with densities of 48kg/m3, are flexible insulation boards for application over irregularly-shaped surfaces where board-like properties are desired. The rigid boards, with densities from 56 to 64 kg/m3, are even more rigid for strength, abuse-resistance and flat appearance.

Rigi Duct

Features & BenefitsAssured Thermal Performance ----- When installed in accordance with instructions, so that compression is controlled, fiber glass Rigid Duct Insulation provides specified thermal performance (see R-value table). Operating costs are controlled due to reduction of heat loss or gain through sheet metal duct walls.Enhanced Comfort Control ----- Fiber glass Rigid Duct Insulation helps heating and cooling systems to deliver conditioned air to occupied spaces at or near design temperatures. By conserving heating and cooling energy, HVAC systems may operate under reduced load.

Fiber glass All-Service Duct Wrap insulationis a blanket of glass fibers, factory-

laminated to a Foil-Scrim-Kraft (FSK) vapor retarder facing or other designated foil.

Fiber glass All-Service Duct Wrap insulation is used to insulate commercialand

residential heating, air conditioning and dual-temperature ducts operating at

temperatures from 4°C to 121°C. This insulation, when applied in accordance with

installation instructions, will provide the “Installed R-Value” as published for the

product and printed on the facing, thus assuring specified in-place thermal perfor

mance and condensation control.

Assured Thermal Performance ----- When installed in accordance with instructions, so that compression is controlled, fiber glass All-Service Duct Wrap provides specified thermal performance. Operating costs are controlled due to reduction of heat loss or gain through sheet metal duct walls.Enhanced Comfort Control ----- Fiber glass All-Service Duct Wrap helps heating and cooling systems to deliver conditioned air to occupied spaces at or near design temperatures.By conserving heating and cooling energy, HVAC systems may operate under reduced load.Flexible, Easy Installation ----- Fiber glass All-Service Duct Wrap is easily cut to fit flat, curved or irregular duct surfaces for a neat, thermally effective insulation blanket. Because it’s easier to install than rigid boards, installation costs are lowered.
