Dampers Supported From Ductwork Above

A Note About Support

When main ducts are supported by 16 ga. x 1½ in.
(1.5mm x 38mm) steel channels (with 9/16 in. [14mm]
minimum flanges) located 1 in. to 3 in. (25.4 mm to
76mm) from and on both sides of a steel duct drop and
these channels are suspended by #12 SWG wire from
structure above, the steel duct drop provides

all required support for ceiling damper and air inlet
or outlet devices. Air device flange must overlap the
ceiling membrane by a minimum of 1 inch (25.4mm).

Follow guidelines in Paragraphs 3 & 4, Page 2 when
preparing opening in the ceiling membrane and
making connections.

neck, and steel duct drop (see page 2, paragraph 4)
may be satisfied in as follows:

1.

Ceiling radiation damper may be connected
directly to the air device neck and then the duct
drop connected to the damper (see Detail B,
Figure 3).

devices require one of the following:
1.

A steel duct drop from the damper extension
should extend to the bottom surface of the
ceiling membrane and the opening in the ceiling
membrane (see page 2, paragraph 3) should be
equal to the outside of the duct drop (see Detail
C, Figure 3).

2.

A steel angle should be attached to the bottom
of the ceiling radiation damper and span the
gap from the ceiling radiation damper to the
bottom of the ceiling membrane. The steel angle
should overlap the ceiling membrane (see Detail
D, Figure 3).
