The African Elephant ducting features a dense 8mm insulated foam layer, ensuring temperature-treated air stays at the desired level even when supplying low-temperature air via VRF systems. This elephant stays reliable, even without paying it much attention. Our ducting is designed to require less cleaning and maintenance thanks to its antimicrobial interior coating, ensuring bacteria and mould cannot grow within the ductwork. Additionally, when the time comes to service your HVAC system, Elephant Duct's semi-rigid, smooth structure makes cleaning out the insides effortless. Tight bends and turns aren't a problem for our ducting, and pressure stays high no matter the configuration. If you want ducting that works tirelessly no matter the conditions, choose Elephant Duct.
