Phonic Trap Ducting 10 Metre Box

Phonic Trap Acoustic Ducting – 10 Metre Box

Phonic Trap Ducting is a premium quality, ultra-quiet acoustic ventilation ducting manufactured in France. Designed to reduce noise travelling through extraction and ventilation systems, it combines effective sound absorption with a strong, flexible construction that helps maintain airflow through bends.

Unlike conventional acoustic ducting that contains fibreglass insulation, Phonic Trap features a fibreglass-free construction. Its unique, shape-retaining design resists collapsing even when curved through 180 degrees, helping to prevent restrictions that can reduce airflow.

This makes Phonic Trap particularly useful for ventilation installations where ducting needs to be routed around equipment, through confined spaces or over longer distances without easily losing its shape.

Supplied in a 10 metre box, Phonic Trap is available in diameters from 4" to 14" (100mm to 355mm), making it suitable for a wide range of extraction fans, carbon filters and ventilation systems.

How to Fit Phonic Trap Ducting

Phonic Trap connects to correctly sized male spigots on extraction fans, carbon filters and ventilation fittings. As an acoustic ducting product, it is important to secure the airflow-carrying inner duct correctly.

1. Measure and cut: Measure the length required for your ventilation installation, allowing enough material for secure connections. Cut the ducting carefully using suitable tools, taking care around any exposed reinforcement or sharp edges.
2. Prepare the ducting: Where the construction allows, carefully pull back the outer covering and acoustic insulation to expose the inner duct.
3. Connect to your equipment: Slide the inner duct over the correctly sized male spigot of your extraction fan, carbon filter or duct fitting.
4. Secure the connection: Use a suitable Jubilee clip, fast clamp or duct tape to secure the inner duct firmly around the spigot, helping to prevent air leaks.
5. Replace the outer covering: Reposition the insulation and outer jacket over the connection, where applicable, and seal with suitable duct tape.
6. Position the ducting: Gently extend the ducting along its intended route, avoiding unnecessary compression, sharp restrictions or excessive stretching.

Joining Two Lengths of Phonic Trap Ducting

If you need to join two lengths of Phonic Trap, use a correctly sized male duct connector.

Slide each length over the connector and secure both connections with suitable clamps or duct tape. Ensure the joints are properly sealed and any outer coverings are repositioned where applicable.

Installation Advice

Phonic Trap's reinforced construction helps it retain its shape even when curved through 180 degrees. This makes it particularly useful where ventilation ducting needs to change direction without collapsing.

For the best airflow, keep ducting runs as short and straight as practical. Although Phonic Trap resists collapsing around bends, tight curves and unnecessary changes in direction can still increase airflow resistance.

For longer installations, support the ducting at suitable intervals to prevent sagging and unnecessary strain on the connections.

Key Features & Benefits

• Excellent noise reduction: Helps absorb sound travelling through ventilation ducting from extraction fans and moving air.
• Fibreglass-free construction: Provides acoustic performance without conventional fibreglass insulation.
• Shape-retaining design: Resists collapsing when curved, helping maintain an open airflow path.
• Suitable for bends up to 180 degrees: Retains its structure when routed around tight curves.
• Manufactured in France: Premium quality European-made acoustic ducting.
• Suitable for longer installations: The 10 metre length provides flexibility for larger ventilation setups.
• Wide range of diameters: Available from 4" to 14" (100mm to 355mm).

Choosing the Right Phonic Trap Ducting

Select a ducting diameter that matches the spigot size of your extraction fan, carbon filter or ventilation fitting. Using the correct diameter helps maintain airflow and provides a secure connection.

The 10 metre Phonic Trap Ducting is particularly suitable for longer extraction runs, larger grow rooms and ventilation installations where reducing noise is important.

For shorter installations, Phonic Trap is also available in 3 metre and 6 metre boxes, offering the same fibreglass-free construction and shape-retaining design.
