Insulation of Ductwork

• Cold Areas Ducts in colder areas (e.g., loft spaces) should be insulated with a 25mm thick layer of duct wrap to prevent condensation
• Warm Spaces Even without loft spaces, insulated ducting should be used on intake and exhaust legs carrying cold air through warmer spaces. This can be achieved with 25mm duct wrap featuring a silver foil face over 25mm rockwool
