GOOT® zero ODP Phenolic air duct system

GOOT®

GOOT® zero ODP Phenolic Pre-insulated air duct system is one of the most advanced and
energy saving HVAC ductwork all over the world. The system consists of Phenolic pre-insulated
panels and accessories. The panels consist of phenolic foam insulation faced on both sides with
75 micron thickness aluminum foil. They are fabricated into ductwork by a set of tools supplied
by us.

System Advantage and Feature

Advantages compared to traditional insulated Sheet Metal Ductwork:

1. Do it in one time, no lag insulation required, save the labor and cost.
2. Save the buiding space
3. Very light, decrease the total weight of building
4. Little air leakage by flange joint connectting
5. Low thermal conductivity, no condensation and energy saving
6. Closed cell foam, good acoustic insulation
7. Fire proof, no smoke when exposing to fire
8. Faced with aluminum foil, it’s water proof and anti-microbial
9. CFC and HCFC free, environment friendly

Further, we have successfully developed the reinforced type pre-

insulated air duct which is outside faced with 0.21mm thickness
Sheet Metal(Galvanized Iron) and inside faced with Aluminum
Foil. While retaining the advantage of normal type pre-insulated
air duct, this reinforced type is much more strong and endurable.

Guide for Fabrication and Installation of Air Duct

1. General
All personnel responsible for the fabrication and construction of ductwork systems shall, prior to
being engaged in the work, have successfully completed the training course and shall be
familiar with all aspects of the techniques necessary for the fabrication of the complete system.
We offer a complete product line providing all tools, accessories and components necessary to
fabricate ductwork. The fabrication personnel could come to our factory to learn the course or
learn by our Fabrication CD and Manual in detail. Here we only introduce the general procedure
for fabricating air duct.
2. Procedure
The construction of a duct is accomplished by following a standardised procedure. The process
is the same regardless of the shape of the duct element: tracing, cutting, gluing, folding, taping,
sealing and flanging&reinforcement. Although each of the above operations is described in
general below, this fabrication manual is by no means intended to serve as an instruction
manual to replace the training course. Note that when properly fabricated, the finished duct will
have no exposed rigid phenolic insulation 一 internally or externally.
3. Tracing
The tracing of the duct outline onto the rigid phenolic insulation panel is the first step of the
process. This is accomplished by utilising the "pencils" supplied in each tool box which scribe a
line as opposed to marking a line. Note that all measurements specified on drawings of duct
systems refer to a duct's internal dimension. This corresponds to the cross-sectional area of the
air passage necessary to satisfy design requirements. It is therefore recommended that the
fabricator adopt the convention of internal measurements during plotting. Accordingly, all
tracing and plotting will take place on the internal side of the duct.
4. Cutting
This operation involves cutting 45°mitre cuts along each edge of the duct. The 'V' grooves made
by the 45°Jack Plane enable the rigid phenolic insulation panel to be folded into shape. The 'V'
groove is also optimal for the subsequent gluing operation as it provides maximumbonded
surface area. The material that is discarded as a result of this operation must have been
accounted for during the previous tracing. There are also several other special purpose Jack
Planes available including the 22.5°, and the Adjustable.
5. Gluing
Glue is applied evenly to mitred surfaces utilising a Hair Brush, and should cover all exposed
phenolic material. Note that the 'V' groove should first be swept clean of any remaining
phenolic dust. Depending on the temperature and relative humidity, the adhesive requires
approximately 10 to 20 minutes to cure during which time the solvents evaporate. This
operation should be performed in a well ventilated area. The curing period is complete when
the glue is dry to the touch.
6. Folding
Following the curing phase, the sides are folded at right angles to each other (90°) and the duct
shape is formed. Note that when two open sides of a duct are joined together, the aluminium
foil edge of the mitre cut on the internal surface should be used for aligning purposes. When a

duct is comprised of several individual pieces, the joining process should always be initiated
from the same end so that the subsequent trimming operation of any excess length is required
at the opposite end only. The Spatulas should then be used to firmly crease along the edges of
the duct to ensure maximum adhesion in the 'V' grooves.
7. Taping
Special reinforced aluminium self adhesive tape is provided. The taping of the duct serves four
purposes:
7.1 it re-establishes the vapour barrier within the mitred cuts;
7.2 external seams are taped to improve the duct's aesthetic appearance;
7.3 tape is used to repair and cover any damage to the rigid phenolic insulation panel, both
externally and internally; and
7.4 it seals and isolates the phenolic material from the surroundings.
Prior to applying the tape, ensure that all surfaces are dry, and free of dirt, oil, silicone, and
grease. Tape is only applied to seams where the external surface of the aluminium foil has been
cut. On sides where the rigid phenolic insulation panel has been simply folded, as opposed to
joined, no tape is required. The tape-marker is used to scribe a line on the phenolic insulation
panel which serves as reference during application of the tape. The spatula is brushed firmly
along the surface of the tape during application to ensure maximum adhesion and to expel any
air trapped underneath. When taping reducers or elbows, the tape must always be applied to
the curved or creased surface (not the flat surface), and the supplemental directions within the
respective sections should be observed.
8. Sealing
Following assembly of the duct section, all internal joints must be sealed with silicone. In
addition to imparting greater strength and rigidity, the primary function of the silicone is to seal
the internal surface of the duct and prevent any phenolic particles from entering the air stream.
It is recommended that after the silicone bead has been applied, a radiused tool (or alternatively
a wet finger) is gently run along the entire length of the bead to further spread the sealant
along the sides of the duct wall. Proper application is crucial in order to achieve "clean air"
performance and minimise leakage.

There are a variety of profiles available to suit various installation requirements. I.E., Invisible
Flange Joint and H Bayonet is used for jointing straight duct sections, and Tee Connector Flange
Joint is used for jointing static Take-off, as shown in figure 9.1. Chair Section Bar and U Section
Bar is used to connect diffuser and grill, and F Section Bar permits all accessories with fastening
frames higher than 20 mm to be fastened to the ducts, like damper and AHU connection.
