How Do You Check Ductwork for Leaks?

Look for the obvious tears on your ductwork.

Tears are a sign that there are leaks on your ductwork.

Seal any tears you find using an appropriate sealant.

The other option is to switch on full blast your ductwork.

It is easier to locate leaks when your ductwork is blowing than when it is silent.

The higher the amount of air blowing, the greater the chances of you finding available leaks.

You can also check for leaks on the duct joint.

These are the points where two ducts meet.

If you feel any air oozing out by placing your hand around here, then there is a leakage.

Also, check on areas where there are duct tapes.

These tapes become worn out with time, thereby exposing the leaks.

Remove such tapes and replace with new ones.

Seal these areas appropriately to avoid leaking. You can also use a smoke pencil or an incense.

What is the Function of Duct Splitter Damper?

Duct splitter damper directs a certain quantity of air into a given duct.

However, most manufacturers don’t recommend its use since it increases static loss leading to the creation of turbulence.

Splitter duct

A better option to a duct splitter damper is the volume control damper.

3-way Duct Splitter and 4-way Duct Splitter, How Do They Compare?

Both of these duct splitters are vital in directing the airflow during the ventilation of your room.

The main difference between these two-duct splitters is the number of minor ducts each consists that facilitates airflow.

3-way duct splitter splits the main duct into three minor ducts which direct the flow of air into three different directions.

On the other hand, a 4-way duct splitter splits the main duct into four minor ducts that direct airflow into four different directions.

Which types of HVAC duct fittings do Biyang offer?

These include; celling boxes, pant wyes, square to round transitions, Tee wyes, 45 degree, and 90 degrees elbows and much more.

We customize these duct fittings to fit your ductwork requirements.

How does HVAC System Work?

First, sucking of the warm air from the room takes place through a grille which is on the base part of the machine.

The warm air flows over chiller pipes via which there is a coolant circulating.

This helps in cooling the warm air and removing excess moisture present.

After this, the cool air flows across a heating element.

Depending on the season and the temperature, this part can be turned on to warm the air as it flows over it.

There is a fan at the top of the system that forces the air into another grille.

In case you switch off the heating element, the air flowing into the room will be somehow cold, which cools the place gradually.

In the meantime, a coolant flows via the chiller pipes picking heat that is coming from the air blowing over the pipes.

This causes the refrigerant to evaporate, resulting in a hotter gas.

It is this hot gas that flows from inside the room to the outside into a compressor that is outside the building.

Here, various metal plates distribute this heat to the atmosphere.

There is an electric fan that facilitates the process of pumping out this air.

Gradually, there will be a change in the temperature of the building.

Is Round Ductwork Better than Rectangular?

Round duct vs rectangular duct

Round duct vs. rectangular duct

Round ductwork is ideal for directing the air that has a low-pressure drop.

It also produces less noise, which can be a nuisance to the occupants of the room.

Lastly, its installation cost is far less than that of rectangular ductwork.

What is a Normal Static Pressure in the Ductwork?

Normal static pressure in ductwork is the maximum resistance pressure that the HVAC fan has to blow.

That is when there is maximum resistance within the ductwork such as in no airflow condition.

Static pressure results in the application of more force while delivering little air circulation.

Static pressure differs depending on the size of your ductwork.

How Do You Increase Airflow in Air Ducts?

You can increase the airflow in air ducts by sealing any leaks available in your ductwork.

Leaks reduce the amount of air flowing through your ductwork and in return, increases your energy bills.

You can also increase the airflow by cleaning the duct filters.

Dirt accumulating o the duct filter reduces the amount of airflow since there is no passage for the air.

If the duct filters have become old, you can consider replacing them for efficient working.

The third option of increasing the airflow in your duct is by using the correct ductwork when designing.

Selecting an inappropriate size leads can cause inadequate air supply, which in turn increases your energy bills.

CFM vs. Static Pressure, What is the Difference?

CFM is the measure of airflow between two points within a duct due to the differential pressure between these points.

The static pressure of the other hand refers to potential energy measurement of air unit at a given cross-sectional point of a duct.

What Material is Duct Insulation Sleeve?

The best material for use in duct insulation sleeve is fiberglass material.

Fiberglass is available in different R-values and thickness.

Each of these materials has its advantages and limitations for use.

What is the Function of the Insulation Sleeve?

Insulation sleeve help in reducing the amount of heat lost within the ductwork as air flows.

Heat loss within the ductwork results in uneven temperature within your room.

R8 Duct Insulation Sleeve vs. R6 Duct Insulation Sleeve; What is the Difference?

R8 duct insulation sleeve is thicker than that of R6 duct insulation sleeve.

Thus R8 duct insulation sleeve offers better insulation than R6 insulation sleeve.

Duct insulation sleeve

Duct insulation sleeve

R6 duct insulation sleeve is less efficient when it comes to heat insulation than R8 duct insulation sleeve.

R8 duct insulation sleeve costs more than R6 duct insulation sleeve.

The exterior diameter of the R6 duct insulation sleeve is smaller and much flexible; thus It offers better thermal efficiency than using R8 duct insulation sleeve.

How Do You Install Insulation in Heating Ducts?

You will need a foil-faced with fiberglass insulation rated with a higher R-value like R-6. Select a metallic foil tape as recommended by your insulation manufacturer for sealing and holding the insulation in its place.

Clean the foil surface that you want to insulate before application of the tape.

Remove the paper off the tape while applying it on the surface to prevent sticking of the tape on itself.

You can apply it on top of the old insulation or if it is completely worn out, consider replacing it.

Using a knife, cut the insulation to the width required for it to fit correctly around the duct.

Check to ensure that the duct is insulated correctly.

For Rectangular HVAC, start with measuring the top width of your HVAC ductwork.

Using the tape measure, extend the measurement to the opposite side, and record the measurements.

Measure the height of the HVAC ductwork using a tape measure.

Take the width and height as the actual fitting dimension of the rectangular HVAC ductwork.

For round HVAC ductwork, using a string, wrap it around the circumference of your HVAC ductwork.

Note the starting point and where the string meets the starting point.

Remove the string and place it against a tape measurement to find the length between the two points.

This is the circumference of your ductwork.

Calculate the diameter by dividing the circumference by pi (3.14).

What Does the Equivalent Length of a Duct Fitting Mean?

The equivalent length of a duct fitting is the length of a straight duct that imposes the equivalent resistance to the flow of air as a specific fitting.

This length is vital for ensuring the proper flow of air distribution along the duct.

What is HVAC?

HVAC stands for Heating, Ventilation, and air conditioning.

It refers to a technology of ensuring proper indoor and vehicular ventilation and thermal comfort.

What is the Best Material for Ductwork Fittings?
