- How Duct Saddles Will Improve Airflow Through Air Ducts
Duct hangers and supports are required by HVAC Australian Standards
BEFORE DUCT SADDLE DUCT HANGERS
It’s a common problem for a house to have kinked or saggy air ducts from their heater or cooling unit which causes:
- Restricted airflow
- Loss of airflow to rooms
- Unbalanced temperatures in a house
- Increased energy bills
AFTER DUCT SADDLE DUCT HANGERS
Duct Saddles will straighten saggy air ducts and improve the performance of heating and cooling systems with the benefits of:
- Improved air flow
- Enhanced HVAC system efficiency
- Increased lifespan of heating and cooling unit
- Reduce energy bills
A Duct Hanger and Support System with Innovative Design
The Duct Saddle is a specially designed duct hanger and strapping support system to keep air ducts straight and uncompromised. The rigid plastic support is a crafted concave shape for optimal duct support which is easily attached without tools to all kinds of duct strapping.
The Duct Saddle is a patented product which measures 30cm x 35cm x 6cm and is available Australia-wide. Contact the team to orgainse your Duct Saddles
Features and Benefits
The concave design of the Duct Sadle allows 930% more surface contact area of the duct hanger with round, flexible HVAC ducting compared to the traditional use of strapping alone. You will stop “strap strangle” and prevent duct sagging and restricted airflow.
By using the new Duct Saddle systems in Australia, HVAC installers and heating and cooling tradesmen can provide complete fitouts using less strapping and less materials while still meeing the strict Australian Regulations – plus you have the ability to increase profit and improve your service.

Sustainable and Energy Efficient Technology
The savvy homeowner will jump at the investment of installing Duct Saddles in their home as the installation method and end results directly influences the heating and cooling effectiveness HVAC system and increases the efficiency meaning there will be less impact on the environment while using less energy.
How To Install
The installation process of the Duct Saddle duct hangers is a quick and easy process requiring no tools.
Once the heating and cooling system installer completes the strapping process on the air ducts as normal, the process is simple:
- Lift the air duct and position the Duct Saddle hanger between the strap and the air duct.
- Fix the duct strap sideways into the centre H-shaped bracket of the Duct Saddle the slide it forward until the strap clears the front tongue. Pull the Duct Saddle backwards to firmly attach the duct hanger to the duct strap support.
- Slide down the Duct Saddle and position at the base of the strap ready to provide extra-wide support to the air duct.
- Rest the air duct onto the Duct Saddle duct hanger and you’re done!
The Duct Saddle is now installed and the supported air ducts can be pulled straight into a fully expanded state thus achieving a maximum state of air flow to the entire house.
