Be sure to take note of the '10 essential tips'
as well when fitting the DucoBox� Avoiding
excessive use of bends, especially angles
greater than 90° and adhering to the diam-
eter guidelines for the ductwork will ensure
that the ventilation box is able to do its job
satisfactorily� Failure to take account of this
recommendation may result in a highly energy
and maintenance-intensive system that gives
rise to frequent excessive noise levels�

10 UNMISSABLE TIPS
The smooth running of your Duco ventilation system is totally dependent
on the choice and the quality of implementation of the duct system!
Has the duct system been optimized? Ask
professional advice from your duct supplier. It
saves you time, ensures quality and provides
energetic advantage for the end user!

All tips are only advisory. All those carrying out
the work can, depending on the project at
hand, determine for themselves which
tips are feasible and/or useful.

Do not place an
exhaust air valve
directly on the box.
Use a 90° bend
between the DucoBox
and the valve. Use
valves with an as low
as possible back-
pressure and follow
the instructions as
given in the manual
regarding the opening
of the valves.
4
Avoid as much as
possible the use of
curves. Avoid sharp
angles.
5
Assure an airtight
connection by using
tape, clamping strips
or tie-wrap. Do not
use screws.
6
Avoid bumps and dirt in the ducts.

Duct leading to the roof pass-through: use a
reducer 125 mm – 160mm. Never use flexible
connections. Avoid curves in this part of the
canalization. If the DucoBox is not mounted in a
protected (insulated) volume, this duct needs to be

Select a roof pass-through
with low resistance.
