Optional Components


SimpleSox Systems are intended for simple, open ceiling applications using straight runs with or without 90 degree elbows. They can be used as an alternative to single wall metal ductwork and diffuser systems in traditional heating, air conditioning, and ventilation applications. SimpleSox can also be used as a replacement for insulated or double wall metal ductwork due to the porous characteristics that the material has. Typical applications are light industrial and retail, but can include many others.



SimpleSox Systems are constructed using a medium-weight, all-purpose, woven, polyester- based, commercial-grade fabric that offers best-in-class performance and features. Available in white or silver fabric and is machine washable.
