In many high-end new-build projects, ductwork is routinely insulated to help minimize energy loss as conditioned air travels from the HVAC units through the ductwork. But duct insulation is being used ...

Building design trends are constantly evolving as architects and building designers find new ways to improve building aesthetics, design, efficiency, and comfort. These trends range from improved ...

One of the most cost-effective and energy-conserving measures you can take is to insulate duct or pipe runs in the unheated areas of your home. By not insulating these conduits, you are essentially ...

Fiberglass insulation is not airtight. Heck, it will barely even slow air propelled by convection, differential pressure or wind. It is especially helpless against air moving through a leaky pipe ...

Careful planning in designing ductwork for emission control structures goes a long way toward reducing overall plant construction costs. Increasing restrictions on power plant emissions are causing ...

The saying ‘out of sight, out of mind’ often holds true for a building’s ducting and insulation systems. However, as heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) experts will agree, this is an ...
