Description

ATCO's UPC #086 is a UL 181 Class 1 Air Duct and is manufactured with a durable black polyethylene jacket. The UPC #086 inner core is air-tight and is designed for low-to-medium operating pressures in HVAC systems.


Construction

A double lamination of tough polyester which encapsulates a steel wire helix forms the air-tight inner core to ATCO's UPC #086. The double layer core is wrapped in a thick blanket of fiberglass insulation, which meets the requirements of the Florida Energy Code, reinforced with scrim and sheathed in a rugged and durable black polyethylene jacket.


Applications

UPC #086 is designed for indoor use as a supply and return air duct in residential and commercial low-to-medium pressure heating and air conditioning systems. ATCO's UPC #086 can be used as a complete air duct system and/or a branch duct connecting to mixing boxes, diffusers, light troffers, room inlets or other terminal devices.
UPC #086 is not intended for outdoor mobile home applications.
