New SMACNA HVAC Duct Construction App Makes Constructing Duct A Snap

October 31, 2013

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAThe Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association (SMACNA) has a new app for its flagship manual, “HVAC Duct Construction Standard—Metal and Flexible, 3rd edition.”
This app greatly simplifies the process of finding construction options for rectangular duct with dimensions up to 120 inches for applications from negative to positive 10-inch water gage as contained within the manual “HVAC Duct Construction Standard—Metal and Flexible.”
The app provides the most commonly used options, but does not provide every possible solution and is no substitute for the book. While a terrific tool to enhance field productivity, it is intended to be used in conjunction with the SMACNA’s “HVAC Duct Construction Standard—Metal and Flexible,” an American National Standard (ANSI).
A version of the app for use on mobile devices may be purchased from the Apple or Google app stores for $12.99. For more information or to purchase this manual, visit SMACNA’s Publications Store, www.smacna.org/bookstore.
