Flexible ductwork has become a main stream product for both residential and commercial building. There is a myriad of requirements, specifications, and product capabilities to consider when specifying flex duct.

The most important consideration in the choice of flex duct is its testing to all applicable industry standards.AmeriFlex Commercial Series is rigorously tested in accordance with ADC thermal performance and R value standards, and carries the ADC logo, proving its certification.

Commercial Series is also tested to the rigorous UL 181 standards for Safety in Factory-Made Air Ducts and Air Connectors. Only an authentic UL listing will ensure that the flex duct you specify will perform in critical areas such as puncture resistance, mold and mildew resistance, surface burning resistance, and damage from extreme pressures, both positive and negative.

Commercial Series flexible duct features the following benefits that make it a great choice for most residential and commercial applications:

• Authentic UL 181 listing
• ADC certified thermal performance and R values
• Many leading code approvals: IMC, UMC, NFPA 90A and 90B, HUD, and the Florida Energy code, City of Los Angeles code, CA Bureau of Home Furnishings, to name just a few.
• Multi-ply metalized polyester core is UL rated at 16" W.C. positive and 1" W.C. negative for diameters 4" through 12".
• Metalized polyester cores provide puncture resistance without the use of PVC, which makes it a much more "green" product for use in LEED applications.
• Formaldehyde-FreeTM fiberglass insulation by Johns Manville ensures that the product exhibits minimal off-gasing, and promotes the health and safety of everyone involved in the manufacture, installation, and end use of the product. Available in R4.2, R6.0, and R8.0.
• Metalized vapor barrier jacket featuring fiberglass scrim sandwiched between the layers of polyester earns an ASTM perm rating of 0.04. (E96 Method A).
• A full 10 year Hart & Cooley warranty ensures peace of mind.
