Product Information

Full details

The Blauberg Sono-Shine-150-10 is a premium insulated flexible ducting solution for modern ventilation systems, ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial use. Its key benefit is superior thermal efficiency and noise reduction, though its 10-metre maximum continuous length requires careful planning for larger projects. This ducting features a robust multi-layered construction with fibreglass insulation to maintain airflow temperature, reduce energy loss, and significantly minimize noise transmission, making it particularly effective in preventing condensation in high-humidity areas like bathrooms and kitchens.

FAQs

What is the maximum continuous length of the Blauberg Sono-Shine-150-10?

The maximum continuous length available is 10 metres. If you order a quantity of 5, you will receive one continuous length of 5 metres.

Do I need special tools to install this ducting?

No, standard tools like a utility knife for cutting and basic clamps or tape for securing connections are sufficient. No specialized tools are required.

How does the insulation prevent condensation?

The 25mm fibreglass insulation layer and an internal vapour barrier keep the duct's surface temperature closer to the temperature of the air inside, reducing the likelihood of moisture from the surrounding air condensing on the duct's exterior.

Can this ducting be used for both supply and extract ventilation?

Yes, it is suitable for both supply and extract ventilation systems where thermal insulation and noise reduction are beneficial.

Is this ducting fire-rated?

Yes, it has been tested for fire resistance and conforms to BS476 Parts 6, 7 & 20, meaning it does not emit toxic gases in the event of a fire.

Can I connect this 150mm duct to an oval duct system?

Yes, the Sono-Shine-150-10 is designed to connect easily to both round and oval ducting systems.

What happens if I order more than 10 metres?

The product is sold in continuous lengths up to a maximum of 10 metres. If you require a length longer than 10 metres, you will receive multiple lengths (e.g., ordering 12 metres might result in one 10-metre length and one 2-metre length, depending on stock and order processing).

Troubleshooting

Reduced airflow

Check the duct for kinks, blockages, or disconnected sections. Ensure the fan is operating at full capacity.

Noise from ducting

Verify secure connections at both ends. Ensure the duct is not vibrating against any structural elements. The insulation is designed to minimize noise, but extreme airflow can still generate sound.

Condensation forming on duct exterior

Ensure the vapour barrier is intact and connections are fully sealed. Check that the insulation layer is not compressed or damaged. If the surrounding air is exceptionally humid and cold, some condensation may still occur at connection points if not perfectly sealed.

Duct appears damaged

Inspect the outer laminate for tears or punctures. If the insulation is exposed, the duct's thermal and acoustic performance may be compromised, and replacement might be necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent thermal insulation properties minimize energy loss.
Significantly reduces ventilation noise for a quieter space.
Effective in preventing condensation, protecting connected equipment.
Flexible and easy to install in complex or confined areas.
Complies with UK fire safety standards.
Versatile connection options for different duct types.

Cons

Maximum continuous length of 10 metres may require multiple sections for long runs.
Fibreglass insulation may require careful handling during installation.
While durable, the outer laminate could be susceptible to abrasion in very harsh environments.
The perforated inner layer might slightly increase air resistance compared to smooth ducts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Sono-Shine-150-10 is designed for straightforward installation. No specialized tools are required for cutting. Simply measure and cut the duct to the desired length using a sharp utility knife. Securely attach the duct to compatible round or oval spigots or adaptors using appropriate clamps or sealing tape (not included). Ensure all connections are airtight to maximize efficiency.

Compatibility: This ducting is compatible with standard 150mm diameter ventilation components, including extractor fans, grilles, and transition pieces. It can be easily connected to both round and oval ducting systems.

Care: Periodically inspect the ducting for any signs of damage, kinks, or disconnections. Cleaning is generally not required unless airflow is noticeably reduced, in which case, external cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the insulation remains dry and intact.
