In addition, round air ducts also have many other outstanding advantages such as:

  • High aesthetics: Due to the aesthetic nature of the works, air ducts can be made to required sizes or painted, with colors that match and stand out with the landscape inside the work.
  • Easy and convenient installation: Round duct system can easily penetrate the structural frames of the building, installation is faster, reducing the number of hangers and accompanying accessories, connections are made easily and quickly.
  • Cost savings: Operating costs will be significantly reduced due to the low leakage of the duct, the optimal characteristics for air flows, reducing pressure allowing other equipment to operate better. Not only that, the transportation and maintenance of round ducts are also very easy and convenient, helping to save a lot of time and costs.

Besides the above advantages, round air ducts still have some disadvantages that buyers need to note as follows:

  • Pipe cross section does not exceed D1000. Making it too large will not ensure product quality.
  • Difficult to install if large pipes are produced.
  • Installation with sleeve or flange looks rough…

Square air duct

Square air duct for extremely fast ventilation capacity, the duct mouth is usually square and rectangular, creating a lot of space to release wind without obstruction. Installation of this type of duct is also relatively easy but somewhat more complicated than round duct.

Advantages of square air duct:

  • Square air ducts are widely used today, suitable for many different house structures.
  • This type of duct is made from high-quality materials, including valves that are firmly connected together, ensuring good air circulation performance.
  • Easy to hang, fabricate, easy to insulate.
  • Some accessories are also easier to manufacture than other cross-section types, including: reducers, elbows, tees, forks, 4-way forks, etc.

  • Difficult to clean during cleaning and maintenance
  • In terms of construction, there are many drawings that require roundness, so square spiral duct cannot serve.
