Connect Flexible Duct to an Existing Duct System

  1. In the drawing area, select a piece of mechanical equipment, a section of duct or a duct fitting to connect the flexible duct to.
  2. Right-click a connector, and click Draw Flex Duct.

    Some components have multiple connectors that display stacked one above another. When drawing flexible duct from a stacked connector, a Select Connector dialog displays to let you specify which connector to use.

  3. On the Options Bar, specify layout options, and click Apply.
  4. Drag the preview of the flexible duct, and click at each point where the duct will bend.

    Clicking at the bends in the flexible duct places vertices that you can use to reshape the flexible duct. You can also insert and delete vertices, using options from the flex duct context menu.

  5. Click the connector on an air terminal, duct segment, or piece of mechanical equipment to specify the end the flexible duct.

    Transitions and tees are automatically added to the duct system to facilitate the connections for the flexible duct.
