Criteria for selecting air ducts for every project

Most construction projects require the use of air ducts. And to meet these needs, there are more and more types of air ducts on the market with a variety of designs, shapes, sizes, and materials. So how to choose the right type of air duct for the project's requirements? Let's Sao Viet Air Duct Learn more in this article!

1. Things to know about air ducts

Air ducts are understood as devices used to change the air in any space with the purpose of bringing better air quality. Air ducts not only help control temperature, add oxygen, but also help remove moisture, toxic gases, odors, dust, heat and bacteria in the air.

In addition, installing air ducts also helps outside air circulate easily into the inside space, preventing stagnant air that causes suffocation and affects human health.

In terms of operating principle, the air duct will operate by leading the natural air flow to mix with the treated cold air flow, then bringing a significant amount of fresh air into the room, creating an airy and healthy space.

Regarding roles and effects, depending on each project and scope, air ducts will have different roles:

  • Provide sufficient oxygen concentration needed for living environments.
  • Exhausts toxic substances in the room such as dust and CO2 to the outside.
  • Releases stagnant, moldy air, thereby creating a flow of fresh air.
  • In addition, air ducts are also used to overcome problems in case of fire and toxic waste.

>> In short, the air duct is a path that helps the air circulate well, contributing to filtering out dust and pushing toxic substances out, bringing a clean and safe environment for people inside. This is very necessary, especially in environments that regularly produce a lot of dust and smoke such as factories, paper mills, garment factories, textile factories, parking garages, etc.

2. Criteria for choosing suitable duct products for the project

Each type of duct with its own advantages and disadvantages will bring certain uses to the construction. And here are some criteria to help make product selection easier:

  • Installation system: Air conditioning systems, factory cooling, smoke and dust extraction, odor extraction, etc. will have different requirements for the type of air duct. In addition, it is necessary to choose the size that is suitable for the needs of use.
  • Location, installation area: It is necessary to clearly determine where the air duct will be used? Is that place luxurious or ordinary? Is it a hotel, restaurant, cinema or factory, workshop, etc. to choose the duct models with appropriate design, shape and size.
  • Production materials and qualityGalvanized and stainless steel air ducts are durable, rust-free, easy to clean, and resistant to environmental impacts. Flexible air ducts are elastic and flexible but are difficult to clean and not very durable.
  • Selling price: Depending on the quality, the price of air duct models is also different. Air ducts made of galvanized iron, stainless steel, etc. with high durability will have higher prices. On the contrary, flexible air ducts are cheaper but not as durable.
  • Usage needs and investment costsConsider the financial situation of the investor as well as the needs of each project to choose the most accurate and suitable type of air duct.

3. The most commonly used types of air ducts today

If you are still wondering which model to choose, or do not fully understand the characteristics of each type of air duct, below Vietnamese Stars will suggest you the types of air ducts that are most commonly used in current projects!

3.1. Square/rectangular air duct

Square/rectangular air ducts are usually made from galvanized iron, used in combination with air vents to bring the best efficiency for the air conditioning process.

The special advantage of this type of duct is that it can be suitable for difficult terrain spaces such as in corners. In addition, square/rectangular ducts are also interested in thanks to their high durability, good heat resistance and quick and easy installation. This type of duct is highly appreciated for its extremely fast ventilation performance, almost no obstruction or blockage thanks to the spacious air circulation space.

However, square/rectangular ducts still have limitations. Because they have sharp and square corners, they are not suitable for locations that require rounded corners. This type is also prone to rust due to water accumulation at the right corners, and the joints are not very strong.

3.2. Round air duct

Round ducts are also a product line that is widely used in ventilation systems today. The most outstanding advantage of this type of duct is its high aesthetics, easily suitable for open, spacious and large spaces.

Compared to other products in the same segment, round ducts have a fast cooling speed, bringing high productivity. Another plus point of this product is cost savings because it is easy to install and has great durability. Cleaning the duct can also be done easily, quickly and does not take too much time. In particular, this type of duct also overcomes the water condensation of square ducts. However, when comparing prices, round ducts will have a quite high price.

3.3. Flexible duct

Flexible ducts stand out for their ability to fit into any construction design. Thanks to their elasticity and flexibility, flexible ducts can be easily installed in any location within the construction space. In particular, flexible ducts are also lightweight, making them easy and convenient to transport.

However, this type of duct is quite easy to accumulate dirt, so it needs to be cleaned regularly. Moreover, the lifespan of flexible duct is not too long, so it often costs more in terms of cost and time.
