Factors to Consider When Choosing Duct Hangers:
- Duct Size & Weight: The hanger must be able to support the weight of the duct.
- Installation Location: The type of hanger will depend on where the duct is located (ceiling, wall, etc.)
- Environmental Conditions: The hanger material should be resistant to corrosion and other environmental factors.
- Code Requirements: Local building codes may have specific requirements for duct hanger installation.
While the term “generic duct hangers” is often used, it’s important to select hangers that are specifically designed for HVAC applications to ensure proper support and safety.
