Estimating systems can be costly, license fees, service fees, and annual maintenance fees are commonplace.

Proven Standards Built In

PriceDuct utilizes the most current SMACNA standards to estimate and build your ductwork. All accessories including slip/drive, vane/rail, TDC accessories, and reinforcement are automatic for the pressure class your job requires. If you have a job that requires a different standard, you can alter each piece to meet the specific needs of your job.

If you have an industrial or heavy-duty application, we have pressure files to meet those needs as well. Allowing for welded round and rectangular and fittings for 16ga to 20ga as well as different materials. We also have your connection needs covered with companion angle rings and welded flanges.
