Insulate the back of your air diffusers and returns. Cut down sweating and heat loss. To be used on a 2'x2' diffuser. Works with our Stratus Brand Plastic Air Diffusers. Actual dimensions: 23-3/4" x 23-3/4".
A diffuser insulation tent is typically used in HVAC and ceiling installations to cover the back of an air diffuser with an insulated “tent-like” enclosure. These are especially common in commercial or energy-efficient residential buildings
Benefits of a Diffuser Insulation Tent:
1. Reduces Energy Loss
- Rated R6 for Thermal Resistance
- Prevents conditioned air (heated or cooled) from escaping into the ceiling plenum or attic space.
- Helps maintain consistent temperature in occupied spaces.
- Improves overall HVAC efficiency.
2. Prevents Condensation
- Acts as a vapor barrier to stop warm, moist air from coming into contact with cold diffuser surfaces.
- Prevents moisture buildup that can lead to ceiling stains, mold growth, or corrosion.
3. Reduces Noise Transmission
- Insulated tents can dampen sound transmission between rooms or from the plenum.
- Helps maintain acoustic privacy in offices or conference rooms.
4. Fire Rated Protection
- Our diffuser insulation tent is constructed with fire-rated materials designed to meet building safety standards. It provides an additional layer of protection by helping to contain the spread of flames and smoke within ceiling spaces. Ideal for commercial or code-sensitive environments, this feature supports compliance with fire safety codes and enhances peace of mind for builders, inspectors, and occupants.
5. Easier Compliance with Building Codes
- Many building codes require insulation around HVAC components to meet thermal performance standards.
- Insulation tents simplify compliance, especially in retrofits.
6. Preserves Ceiling Appearance
- Prevents ceiling tile warping, staining, or sagging caused by temperature extremes or condensation.
7. Enhances Indoor Comfort
- Helps ensure uniform temperature distribution across the room.
- Reduces drafts and hot/cold spots under ceiling vents.
