• Intercalated / Striated Ducts .
• Intercalated ducts are small ducts which drain individual secretory units. ...
• Striated ducts are duct segments specialized for concentrating the secretory product that is flowing through the duct. Striated ducts found in some but not all glands (notably salivary glands), where they follow after intercalated ducts and are lined by a simple epithelium consisting of conspicuous cuboidal to columnar cells.
• The cells of the striated ducts are specialized for concentrating the secretory product that is flowing duct. ...
• Secretory / Excretory Ducts.

• Insulating Pipes and Ducts.
• When insulating attics, floors over unheated basements, or crawl spaces, be sure to insulate the pipes and heating ducts located in these areas, too. Ducts are the rectangular or cylindrical sheet metal passageways that carry heat from the furnace to your rooms. ...
• To Insulate Pipes and Ducts, You'll Need: .
• Some ducts are set too close to walls, etc. ...
• Faced insulation should be used wherever people will come into routine contact with the ducts and on all air conditioning ducts. ...
• Insulating Heating and Air Conditioning Ducts.
• Check to make sure that joints are securely joined (fasten any loose joints with screws) and that the metal or wire supports joining the ducts to the structure are in good repair.
• For rectangular ducts, cut sections to a length equal to the circumference of the duct. ...
• When attic insulation is deep enough to cover the bottom of the heating ducts, batt insulation need only be installed on the exposed portions of the duct top and sides.

• Insulating Ducts for Efficiency.
• Homeowners must insulate ducts to prevent heat or cool air loss.
• Properly insulating the ducts that move heated and cooled air around your home can save on energy bills for the life of your home.
• Once the ducts have been installed, and the trunks and runs established, it's time to finish off the heating system by insulating the ducts. The degree to which you insulate your ducts depends on local building codes for energy efficiency, and whether the ducts are in conditioned or non-conditioned areas. ... If ducts are long or poorly insulated, they often result in cool blows, or gusts of air that have lost the desired temperature. ...
• Sealing and Insulating the Ducts.
• The first step toward fully insulated ducts is to seal all of the points in the duct run. ... How quickly the air moves through the ducts determines how well it will hold its temperature. Well-sealed joints allow the ducts to carry air at maximum capacity. ...
• Once the ducts have been sealed, an insulating jacket is wrapped around the ducts and plenum. ...
• Reflectix is designed to reflect 97 percent of radiant heat, keeping ducts cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. ...

• heat or cool their homes with ducted forced air systems, so chances are good that air ducts are lurking within your walls, floors, or ceilings. These air ducts move conditioned air to warm and cool your family. ...
• The typical forced air system uses supply ducts to deliver warmed or cooled air from the furnace, heat pump, or central air conditioner to rooms around your home. Return ducts are used to pull back air from those same rooms so that it can be heated or cooled again. ... A fan in the furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner pushes air through supply ducts (on the right) into the living space. ... In either case, the room air is pulled back through return ducts (on the left) by the fan to be reconditioned by traveling again through the furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner.
• When operating properly the ducts in your house can be a very clean and efficient part of the heating and air conditioning system. Ideally, they can supply conditioned air with minor temperature losses along the way to the places where you want it, and the ducts can remain dust and bacteria free for years without cleaning. ... Ducts almost always leak the conditioned air that you've spent money to heat or cool, and if your ducts are not properly insulated, you're also wasting energy and losing money. ...
• But if you have gaps and holes in the return ducts passing directly over the piles waiting for a yard sale, you are probably breathing air pulled from those dusty piles. The figure below shows how holes in the return ducts can pull in air from unwanted places, like your basement or crawlspace. ...
• In addition to pulling in dust, dirt, and unwanted biological material, holes in the return ducts of a forced air system can waste energy. For instance, if your return ducts run through your attic, holes and gaps can suck in air that may be below freezing in winter and more than 130 degrees-F in mid-summer. ... If your return ducts travel through a crawlspace, garage, or partially conditioned basement, the temperature of the air pulled in may be less extreme but the result will still be that your heating or air conditioning equipment will need to work harder than necessary.
• Holes in the return ducts are not the only source of wasted energy from leaky ducts. If you have holes or gaps in your supply ducts, some of that nice warm or cool air is being blown out into the basement or crawlspace and other places you don't want it to go. That means less air is being pushed into the living space than is being pulled out of the living space through the return ducts. ...

• Sealing Air Ducts.
• Every effort must be made to seal and insulate all attic equipment, most importantly the air ducts.
• Two types of ducts are used in HVACR installations: galvanized duct work held together with sheet metal screws and tape, or flexible insulated ducts. Professional systems use the rigid metal ducts to reduce constrictions of the pipes, and to deliver the air volume as planned. ...
• Wherever ducts mate with a air register or blower, mastic or adhesive must be used to prevent air leaks. ...
