Steps to Install Master Flow Insulated Flexible Duct
Preparation
Ensure you have a clean and clear workspace. Measure the required length of duct from the HVAC system to the outlet. Wear safety gloves and a dust mask before handling the duct.
Cutting the Duct
Using the utility knife, carefully cut the Master Flow duct to the measured length. Make sure to cut through both the insulation and the inner core. Use wire cutters to trim any reinforcing wire.
Connecting the Duct
Slide one end of the duct over the starting collar or connector. Ensure it covers at least 2 inches for a secure fit. Use an adjustable wrench to tighten any metal clamps.
Securing and Sealing
Seal the connection with metal duct tape to prevent air leaks. Attach cable ties at intervals along the duct to support and secure it. Ensure the duct is not pinched or kinked.
