Weight:

Ductwork fabricated from The Kingspan KoolDuct System can weigh up to 75% less than ductwork constructed from galvanised sheet steel and insulated with mineral fibre. The low weight of ductwork fabricated from The Kingspan KoolDuct System can enable easier installation and much lower handling costs, since fewer people are required to install a ductwork section. Two individuals can quickly and easily install large ductwork sections.

Cost and speed:​

Installed cost savings – reduced labour and materials, including fixings and first level support members, can provide an ideal value engineered ductwork solution without compromising performance – over 15% less expensive. ​Ductwork fabricated from The Kingspan KoolDuct System has a single–fix installation and eliminates the need to install insulation as a second operation, thus reducing time onsite an contractor management through faster installation speeds. The ability to fabricate ductwork from The Kingspan KoolDuct System in up to 2.95 m long sections means fewer sections and less handling. This, combined with the low weight of ductwork fabricated from The Kingspan KoolDuct System, the requirement for fewer supports and ease of handling, results in a fast–track installation.

Space:

Ductwork fabricated from The Kingspan KoolDuct System is space saving by virtue of eliminating the space required to manually install a separate layer of insulation around the ductwork. Moreover, ductwork fabricated from The Kingspan KoolDuct System can be installed flush to ceilings, walls and floors, as well as to surfaces within confined enclosures. This can typically save 150–200 mm of valuable space, making it ideal for use in service runs, raised floors and pre–fabricated modules.
