Troubleshooting
Reduced airflow or noisy operation
Check for kinks, bends, or obstructions within the ducting. Ensure connections are secure and airtight. Clean any accumulated dust or debris from the inside of the duct.
Ducting appears to be leaking air
Verify that the duct clamps are tightened securely at both ends. Inspect the ducting for any tears or punctures and repair or replace as necessary.
Ducting feels excessively hot or cold
Ensure the application's temperature is within the specified range of -30°C to 250°C. For extreme external temperatures, consider insulation if necessary, though the material itself is rated.
Difficulty connecting to fan or vent
Ensure you are using the correct diameter ducting (150mm/6"). Check that the fan or vent connection point is not damaged or deformed.
