HVAC Reflective Insulation

REFLECTO-PAN RETURN AIR DUCT PANNING

• Considerably less costly to install (quick staple up) • Not affected by moisture/humidity

• Resists fungi & mildew growth • Non-toxic/non-carcinogenic

Reflecto-Pan is an alternative to conventional sheet metal and aluminum panels for panning return air on ducted systems. On wood frame construction, it may be used to enclose the bottom of the return air plenums, between joist spaces, stud cavities and wall/ceiling cavities. Reflecto- Pan has high reflector on both sides, a layer of bubbles in the middle and tape running the length of the product for easy identification by code officials. The tape identifies the manufacturer and the ASTM testing: ASTM E84 * Class A/Class 1 * ASTM C411.

THERMO-PAN® 16013 - Thermo-Header® 16048 - Return Air Panning

Thermo-Pan® is a high quality, lightweight alternative to sheet metal in con- structing return air ducts between joists. It consists of corrugated insulation faced with aluminum. Available in lightweight sheets, packed 25 to the carton. Staples quickly and easily to floor joists. Requires no shop fabrication. Reduces labor, installation time and duct noises.

Thermo-Pan® headers are pre-cut and scored to fit easily between joists. Specially-sized headers are cut and scored to fit I-joist construction.

Thermo-Connectors® are molded plastic strips which easily connect Thermo- Pan® panels.

DUCT SIZING FOR ADD-ON

Many duct systems are under sized. Many become undersized due to the addition of A/C to an existing heating system, without verifying the duct work could handle the additional CFM required for A/C. Typically, duct work connected to an existing” heating only” system is insufficent to handle A/C requirements. Adding A/C to a duct system designed for “heating only” may result in system performance problems and premature system failure. When you are estimating an “ADD-ON” air conditioning installation, be sure to determine the duct system sizing is sufficient to handle the increased CFM required for the A/C. If it isn’t, explain that you will need to add supply/return duct and registers and return. Advise the customer that any system added to the existing duct will experience operational problems. A/C duct systems require anywhere from 20% to 40% increase in size depending on the tonage installed.

Sell the additional duct work, registers and grilles required at the time of sale, and premptively resolve the problems. Visit us at www.remichel.com 909
