Never leave a 10m duct crumpled up in a 2m run. Bunched ducting roars, traps condensation and robs your fan of a big slice of its airflow. Keep runs short and straight, use smooth gentle bends, and finish every joint with a clip and a wrap of aluminium tape.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I cut it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSlice the laminate with a sharp knife, then snip the steel wire with side cutters.
