Why Schweigen SteelFlex
™
Safety Duct
Schweigen SteelFlex
™
is an ultra-strong and flexible high-performance safety ducting made
of Shirikon Firemesh
®
– a tri-layer tear-resistant UV-treated sleeve. Both are developed by
Schweigen – the Silent Rangehood specialists, for quiet and efficient high-volume transfers
of temperature-sensitive air. Engineered to enhance the health and safety of your home,
Schweigen SteelFlex
™
is antimicrobial treated, thermally insulated and acoustically dampened.
It is fireproof, pest and crush proof with a treated surface that prevents the build-up of grease
and bacteria.
Schweigen’s unique Isodrive system works in the opposite way to conventional rangehoods, pulling air through
the hood and acoustically matched ducting, producing almost silent high volume flow. The use of a complete
rigid or semi-rigid ducting system will allow an organ piping effect to occur; like a didgeridoo where a noise is
produced at one end of a hollow rigid pipe and the noise is amplified out the other.
The Isodrive system places the noise outside the house.
WARNING:
Installation without the use of at least the minimum recommended length of acoustically matched
SteelFlex
™
in the system will void performance expectations. Any installation problem must be reported
to Schweigen. Call outs relating to incorrect installation will result in a service fee direct to the customer.
Schweigen takes no responsibility for problems caused by faulty installation, this may void warranty. A
