New Generation of Duct Liner with ToughGard(R) MAX

Description

Duct liner just got tougher, with the introduction of ToughGard(R) MAX Duct Liner from CertainTeed Corporation. A new innovation that blends the thermal performance of rotary liner with the durability and easy handling of textile liner, ToughGard MAX offers the best of both styles for fast job completion, high quality and results that are better than ever. The new liner utilizes InsulSafe, CertainTeed’s premium, industry-leading blowing insulation, to help create a product with excellent durability, moisture resistance and cleanability. The result, says Renee Chesler, General Manager of CertainTeed’s Mechanical Insulation business, is the best-performing duct liner available. “ToughGard Max is designed to meet the increasingly tough standards that engineers and their customers demand. It’s a next-generation duct liner that combines the thermal performance of rotary liners with the handling characteristics of textile liners,” she says. ToughGard MAX features an enhanced R-value, high acoustical values, and a composition that promotes healthy indoor air quality (IAQ) and meets the demands of most specifications. A black fiber glass mat allows for easier finishing and cleaner-looking installations. In addition, ToughGard MAX features an enhanced surface that provides moisture resistance for optimal IAQ, an EPA registered anti-microbial agent for added protection, and a surface that resists tearing, puncturing and wear during installation and maintenance. ToughGard Max shows no significant fiber erosion for systems operating at velocities up to 6,000 fpm. “We go to great lengths to develop high-quality HVAC insulation products,” continues Chesler. “We’ve taken that commitment one step further with the introduction of ToughGard MAX.”
