HVAC Duct Aluminum Cladding

2024-09-06

The main role of hvac duct aluminum cladding is to improve the insulation effect, protect the pipe from corrosion, and enhance the aesthetics of the pipe. Aluminum cladding roll is usually used as an outer protective layer to cover the pipe insulation material to prevent the external environment from causing damage to the insulation material. This practice is particularly common in the construction of air-conditioned and ventilation pipe insulation, in which aluminum roll, aluminum foil glass wool are commonly used insulation materials. The aluminum cladding used for HVAC is flat, smooth, and can closely fit the pipe surface, thus effectively protecting the internal insulation material.

HVAC duct aluminum cladding commonly used materials such as 1060 aluminum and 3003 aluminum. Among them, 1060 aluminum has high purity, good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance; while 3003 aluminum belongs to the rust-proof aluminum sheet, high hardness, good formability, solubility and corrosion resistance. The thickness range of the aluminum cladding for duct is usually between 0.3 mm and 1.0 mm, and the specific selection should be based on the actual use of the pipeline and thermal insulation requirements. In practice, a thickness of 0.8 mm is a common choice, as it is both easy to transport and install, and can provide better thermal insulation.

The use of the aluminum cladding not only improves the insulation effect of the pipe and reduces energy loss, but also enhances the aesthetics and durability of the pipe. By adding a protective layer of aluminum cladding outside the insulation layer, it can solve the problems of poor appearance of the insulation layer, easy to touch the damage, etc. At the same time, the surface of the hvac duct aluminum cladding is smooth and not easy to absorb water, which can effectively prevent the surface of the pipeline from condensation, and reduce the corrosion of water vapor on the pipeline. In addition, the aluminum cladding has excellent thermal conductivity, which can reduce the heat loss of the pipeline, thus saving energy.

Roles of hvac duct aluminum cladding:
- Energy saving: Reduces heat exchange, keeps air temperature stable and improves the efficiency of the air conditioning system.
- Moisture prevention: Prevents condensation from forming on the surface of the piping and prevents moisture from entering the walls or other structures.
- Anti-corrosion: Protect the piping from the external environment and extend the service life of the piping.
- Sound insulation: reduces the spread of noise generated during air conditioning operation.
