Major-appliance and household ventilation solutions designed for tear-resistant, lightproof exhaust runs. Durable performance appeals to homeowners and installers who need a flexible, stable connection for cooker hoods and tumble dryers. Is EUROPLAST Flexible Air Duct the right choice for busy kitchens and compact installations?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Flexibility: Very flexible while remaining dimensionally stable, so bends hold shape without collapsing
- • Best for: Cooker hoods, extractor fans, air conditioners and tumble dryers in domestic and light-commercial settings
- • Not ideal for: Applications that require rigid, non-flexing ductwork or permanent structural runs
Multi-layer construction of PVC, PET and aluminium gives a balance of flexibility and strength. The hose resists tears and blocks light while coping with a wide temperature range.
Reliable, lightproof exhausts - thanks to a tear-resistant cover
A reinforced outer cover combines PVC and PET layers to reduce punctures and prevent lumen exposure. Aluminium layer beneath helps maintain a consistent internal surface that keeps light from passing through.
Tear resistance reduces the risk of damage during fitting or when tucked behind appliances. Lightproof performance keeps ducted exhaust discreet and prevents stray light into extraction runs.
Easy routing in tight spaces - with high flexibility and dimensional stability
Corrugated construction allows the hose to bend sharply while internal structure resists flattening under compression. Dimensional stability helps the hose retain shape across repeated bends.
Flexible routing simplifies installation behind cupboards or through short, convoluted runs. Stable shape reduces airflow restriction and keeps extraction consistent.
Works across a wide temperature range - thanks to multi-layer PVC/PET/aluminium build
Combination of PVC and PET layers bonded with aluminium creates thermal resilience, suitable for temperatures from -30°C to +140°C. Layering prevents rapid deformation under heat or cold.
Compatible with both hot tumble-dryer exhausts and colder external vents without losing performance. Long-term dimensional stability helps avoid frequent replacements.
