ABSTRACT:
A rectangular, flexible duct serves as an alternative to galvanized sheet metal duct work installed in homes by utilizing corrugated semi-rigid top and bottom walls with relatively flexible connecting side walls so that the duct may be easily rolled and stored. But when unrolled, it is fastened, for example, between floor joists of a home by use of an overhanging flange formed by one of the top or bottom walls. The duct walls are made of heat resistant plastic suitable for heating and ventilating. Rigidity is provided in the top and bottom walls by corrugations or ribs formed in the plastic.
