When it comes to ductwork manufacturers, there’s a lot of noise out there. But while others are busy overpromising and under-delivering, US Duct is quietly doing what we’ve always done best: building high-performance ductwork that installs faster, lasts longer, and costs less in the long run.
Here’s why thousands of fabricators, manufacturers, and facility managers choose US Duct over the usual suspects.
Built for Performance. Designed for People Who Actually Use It.
Most ductwork manufacturers fall into two categories:
- The ones that give you a slick sales pitch but force you into overpriced, rigid catalog systems.
- The ones that cut costs by skimping on materials, making you pay for it later in downtime and duct tape.
US Duct isn’t either. We build durable, custom, American-made ductwork that installs fast, runs flawlessly, and won’t require a re-do in six months. It’s the kind of ductwork you install once, and then stop thinking about.
Head-to-Head Comparison: US Duct vs. "Those Other Guys"
Clamp-Together Ductwork
- US Duct: Fast, tool-free installation with rolled-lip and clamp design. Strong, airtight seals with a 100% leak-free guarantee on US Tubing clamp-together duct.
- Competitor 1: Modular design, but limited flexibility and customization. No leak-free guarantee.
- Competitor 2: Primarily flanged systems, more time-consuming to install. No leak-free guarantee.
Custom Duct Fabrication
- US Duct: Fully custom ductwork built to spec with short lead times and flexible design. Includes a free ductwork quoting system for both the dealer and end user to see their system in 3D.
- Competitor 1: Offers limited stock configurations with minimal custom options.
- Competitor 2: Provides custom solutions, but with slow turnaround times and added costs.
Duct Accessories (Hoods, Valves, Flanges, etc.)
- US Duct: Full line of rugged, compatible accessories engineered to integrate seamlessly.
- Competitor 1: Smaller selection; accessories often require extra work to adapt.
- Competitor 2: Broad offerings, but often sold separately at higher prices.
Made in the USA
- US Duct: Proudly manufactured and supported in North Carolina.
- Competitor 1: Many components sourced overseas; not 100% domestic.
- Competitor 2: Some U.S. production, but frequently mixed with imported parts.
Customer Support
- US Duct: Real humans, fast responses, expert advice from ductwork pros. Once a customer, you're always prioritized.
- Competitor 1: Slow and inconsistent communication.
- Competitor 2: Decent support, but slower and more rigid than US Duct.
Lead Times & Quotes
- US Duct: Quotes within 24 business hours—the fastest in the industry.
- Competitor 1: Can take 2–3 weeks just to get a quote.
- Competitor 2: Quote timelines inconsistent; custom requests often delayed up to 3 weeks.
Value for Cost
- US Duct: Unmatched durability and performance at a fair price. Best bang for your buck.
- Competitor 1: Higher cost for standardized systems with limited flexibility. Would have to order from two manfuacturers to get a complete system.
- Competitor 2: Quality is solid, but prices are significantly higher for similar performance.
Warranty
- US Duct: 1-year warranty on all fabricated components.
- Competitor 1: Warranty varies and often limited to individual parts.
- Competitor 2: Warranty offered, but inconsistent across product lines.
The Big 3: What We Do Better Than Anyone Else
1. Clamp-Together Ductwork That Saves Time and Labor
We engineered our clamp-together duct to cut installation time by up to 50%—without sacrificing airflow, performance, or reliability. Rolled-lip pipe and stainless clamps provide a tight, leak-resistant seal that won’t rattle loose under pressure.
Ideal for facilities that want easy changeouts and upgrades, our clamp systems are faster, simpler, and smarter.
2. Custom Ductwork, Made to Order—and Made to Fit
Off-the-shelf only works if your facility was built in a CAD program. For everything else, you need custom ductwork that fits around your equipment, your floor plan, and your airflow goals.
US Duct offers:
- Rapid custom quotes
- Made-to-spec elbows, reducers, and branches
- Paint-matching, material options, and specialty flanges
And we do it faster and more affordably than the other guys.
3. A Full Line of Accessories That Actually Work Together
Why source parts from five different places when you can get them all from one manufacturer and know they’ll actually fit?
We offer:
- Fume hoods for welding, soldering, or fine dust capture
- Flanges, dampers, and butterfly valves built to seal
- Blast gates and spark traps for safe, efficient system performance
- Industrial duct accessories
- Duct hoods and flanges
- spark traps for welding and grinding applications
Every accessory is designed to integrate seamlessly with our duct systems—and is built with the same rugged quality we’re known for.
The Bottom Line: We're Built Different (In a Good Way)
Other manufacturers want to lock you into their system. We want to build the right system for you.
Whether you're a fabricator looking for fast changeouts, an OEM managing multiple sites, or a facility manager tired of surprise leaks and rust, US Duct delivers value that lasts.
We’re not just another ductwork brand. We’re your ductwork partner.
