About this file

This document is a specification for HVAC insulation for a Roseburg High School wood shop project in Oregon. The insulation requirements include flexible elastomeric insulation with an R-value of 4.0 minimum per inch for exterior ductwork, with a 0.016" aluminum jacket. The insulation must meet fire and smoke hazard rating requirements. The project is part of a larger state and local contract opportunity, 21-701 ROSEBURG HIGH SCHOOL DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM, which involves Douglas County, Oregon.

The specification outlines the standards for acceptable insulation manufacturers and accessories. It also details the ductwork to be insulated, requiring R-8 insulation for all supply and exhaust ducts located on the exterior of the insulated building envelope and all outside air intake ducts. Installation requirements, such as sealing seams and penetrations, are also provided.

3.01 DUCTWORK INSULATION

A. Ductwork: Insulate the following:

1. All exhaust and supply ductwork exposed to exterior temperatures.

2. Sound traps.

3. Fan enclosures.

B. Insulation Thickness: Select board and blanket insulation of thickness required to provide the following installed R-value.

1. All supply and exhaust ducts located on the exterior of the insulated building envelope and all outside air intake ducts.

a. R-8

C. Fittings: Wire and duct adhesive as required. To prevent sagging on all rectangular or square ducts over 24" wide, install Gramweld or equal welding pins on the bottom.

Maximum spacing 18" on center in both directions.

D. Installation: Applied with butt joints, all seams sealed with vapor seal mastic or taped with 2" wide vapor-proof, pressure-sensitive tape. Seal all penetrations with vapor barrier adhesive.

E. Insure all seems in the external aluminum jacket are on the side or bottom of the duct.

Lap edges to ensure moisture drains away from the insulation. Attach with bands.

Screws are only allowed on the bottom of the ducts.
