Commercial Spiral Duct

When it comes to having ductwork installed, there are a variety of options available. Many businesses are choosing oval ductwork over other types of duct fittings because of its many benefits. With energy prices increasing, many industrial business owners are looking for ways to cut costs and improve their bottom line. Your HVAC system may be the first place you want to look. Here are four reasons to use commercial oval ductwork.

Improved Air Flow

One of the best reasons for choosing commercial oval ductwork is the improvement of airflow in your HVAC system. As debris accumulates in industrial duct collection exhaust systems, it can decrease its overall performance abilities. A buildup of debris can lead to a loss of around 42% efficiency. Oval ducting requires fewer joints and is self-sealing, which helps improve energy efficiency and airflow significantly.

Fast and Easy Installation

Because oval ducts need fewer joints, they’re faster and easier to install. The time spent on installation will depend on the physical structure of the building and the design of the HVAC system. However, it takes less time to install then rectangular ducts because oval ducts come with self-sealing fittings.

Affordability

Oval duct products cost less than other types of fittings for ducts. Oval duct products can save you up to 67% for installation. They’re also easier to clean. This can help you save money on maintenance costs. The cost of a brand new ductwork system can cost you around $70,000. With oval spiral duct fittings, you can see that cost reduced to around $62,000. In some cases, the entire cost of installed spiral duct can save up to 50% less over rectangular systems.

Less Noise

Oval ductwork fittings carry less noise from motors and fans on HVAC systems. With rectangular ducts, there are uneven pressure gaps where the airflow must take sharp turns. This air pressure can cause heavy reverberation. Oval ducts equalize the air pressure, which reduces vibration. By insulating them, you can reduce noise even further.

Commercial oval ductwork is the best choice for your business if you want to save money on energy costs and have a system that’s easy to maintain. If you’re looking to upgrade your HVAC system, contact one of our professionals here at DC Duct and Sheet Metal.
