HVAC Supply Duct is looking good! This duct was installed at a large BBQ restaurant and distillery in Hickory, NC. The duct supplies fresh outside air to the entire building from our Paragon RTU. Install was completed very quickly with only 2-3 people handling the entire job. Many people like to compare our HVAC Supply Duct to life-size LEGOs. Just hang, seal, and connect together, no welding required! Learn more at CaptiveAire.com/supplyduct....Show more
