Plenum Cutting with Duct Board

Air Distribution: Building a Better Box

Air Distribution: Building a Better Box

We begin with the basics… how to measure, how to cut, how to fold, and how to clean the existing air handler, all the to way air flow specifications. For many HVAC companies, having this skill is a must-have!

Though our first box building exercise concentrated on unused air handlers, this coming week we will continue by building boxes atop systems in use. Yesterday we continued the distribution box process and hoping by end of day the flex will be hung… check us out (comment and share) as the days progress.

At our workshop facility, all work with duct board (building boxes), flex, mastic, tape, hangers, registers, and much more to secure an efficient plenum structure. After all, discoloration due to an improper build is NEVER a good thing.

The group practiced plenum elements yesterday and will perfect the skill today. Fortunately their new system swaps are just about complete so we will be connecting and perfecting air flow soon… keep checking us out, share, like, and make comments.

After inspired design work, the group completed flex work without hesitation. We decided to get creative with the runs… check out the photos. Over the next three weeks we will be troubleshooting and getting down to HVAC hands on basics, component swaps, more brazing, lots of PM’s, and that’s just to name a few hands-on stuff we will tackle.

The group excelled in the new system project, let’s take a look at the distribution boxes, flex progression, and registers — imagine cold air turning discomfort into comfort.

From wiring to the vacuum, to everything in between, all got their hands in the groove. Come to think of it, the BEST way to learn the life of an HVAC technician IS to learn by doing.
