Flexible Duct Connector (ARE)

Description

The Flexible Duct Connector (ARE) is a high-quality HVAC accessory engineered to provide strong, airtight, and vibration-resistant connections between air ducts and air handling equipment. Constructed from heavy-duty galvanized steel sheets and high-strength fire-retardant fabric, this connector is designed to withstand continuous airflow, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical stress.

By absorbing vibration and noise generated by blowers, fans, and air handling units, it prevents transmission through the duct system, improving comfort and efficiency. Its flexible design also accommodates slight misalignments, thermal expansion, and movement between connected components.

The ARE series flexible duct connector is widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial HVAC installations to enhance system performance, safety, and durability.

Key Benefits:

• Vibration Isolation: Prevents vibration transfer from equipment to ductwork.

• Noise Reduction: Improves acoustic comfort in HVAC systems.

• Durable Construction: Galvanized steel with flame-retardant fabric for long service life.

• Flexibility: Allows for thermal expansion and movement between units.

• Easy Installation: Designed for quick and secure duct connections.

Applications:

• HVAC air handling units (AHU)

• Blowers and fans

• Duct-to-equipment connections

• Commercial and industrial ventilation systems

• Residential HVAC noise control
