Overview

• Superior Air Ducts eliminate most common
  problems associated with alternative air
  distribution systems. Superior Air Ducts is the
  long awaited effective way to distribute comfort.

5
Overview Cont

• Superior Air Ducts R/8 and additional components
  are now available
• Semi - Flex Duct (2- 20)
• Duct Wrap
• Register Boxes
• Duct Liner (available on request)

6
Physical Description

• Superior Air Ducts is a class A type 1 semi-flex
  air duct that is tested for compliance to
  standard for safety underwriters laboratory 181.
  SF082 is manufactured with reinforced reflective
  metallized jacket. The SF082 inner core is air
  tight and is designed for low to medium operating
  pressures in HVAC systems.
• The inner core is constructed with a steel wire
  helix encapsulated in (2) ply clear mylar.

7
Physical Description Cont

• The cotton insulation is a 2.2 lb per cubic
  foot density with a thermal resistance value of
  R8. The insulation surrounds the inner core
  which consists of a heavy gauge wire and spaced
  every 3/8 to 1 depending on a size of the duct,
  for extra durability. The metallized mylar jacket
  is reinforced with a heavy cross hatched scrim.

Features Benefits

• The secret of this revolutionary product lies in
  the simplest features, such as cotton insulation.
  As a result the Superior Air Ducts semi - flex
• Environmentally friendly
• Superior acoustical properties
• Stops condensation mold bacteria resistant
  vermin resistant
• Flame resistant/fire retardant
• Will not crush
• Higher actual R-value
• Less than 1 degree temperature differential over
  50 feet!!

9
Features Benefits

• Superior Air Duct (Semi-flex) is made with 100
  cotton insulation
• The cotton insulation is a 2.2 lb per cubic foot
  density with a thermal resistance value of R8.
• The cotton insulation is environmentally friendly
• Cotton insulation is non itch non toxic
  material
• Does not require protective clothing

10
Features Benefits

• Stops condensation mold bacteria resistant
  vermin resistant
• The natural fiber is treated with an EPA
  registered, non-toxic, borate solution and than
  flash-dried in the manufacturing process to
  offer mold/mildew protection. Borates are a very
  effective natural biostat that actively inhibit
  mold, mildew, bacteria, and fungi growth.

11
Features Benefits

• Flame resistant/fire retardant
• Borates also act as an excellent fire retardant.
  This is the first A/C duct that will not support
  flame and will not melt down in case of a fire.

12
Features Benefits

• Less than 1 degree temperature differential over
  50 feet
• Leaky air conditioning ducts can become one of
  the biggest energy wasters. An alternative
  residential A/C duct on average leaks as much as
  30. Superior Air Ducts are guaranteed not to
  leak due to the sturdy design and quality
  components that make our duct a high efficiency
  air conditioning duct. It looses less than 1
  degree over 50 feet resulting lower energy cost
  A/C runs less frequent.

13
Applications

• Semi-flex Superior Air Ducts are easily
  installed in any residential or commercial
  building type. Any area that carries alternative
  flex-ducts or hard pipes is suitable for
  Semi-flex Superior Air Ducts.
• Installation Air Duct connections and joints
  shall be made per installation instructions
  outlined by Superior Air Ducts, and as required
  by the UL 181 listing procedure (INSTALLATION
  INSTRUCTIONS ARE INCLUDED INSIDE EACH BAG).
