Product Information
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE. All Hart & Cooley
flexible duct products are performance-tested in accordance
with industry standards to ensure reliability and years of
service. Our core is tested (in accordance with ADC FD 72-R1)
for actual installation static pressure/ temperature performance
and meets the ratings specified in our catalog. Our polyester
cores are also tested for microbial resistance by GEI per
ASTM D6329-98. The vapor barriers are tested for permeation
in accordance with ASTM test methods. Call-backs are
expensive and eat away at your profits. Use flexible duct you
know has been performance-tested.
