Eberspacher air Ducting

[oldestgit]

I am refitting an Airtronic D2 Eberspacher and need to get about 5 m of 60mm air ducting suitable for this unit. Does anyone have any ideas where the ducting can be purchased at less than ebber's phenomenal pricing.
I am also looking for some insulation for the same pipe so would also appreciate any ideas.

Many thanks... Peter

Look on eBay. The guy you want trades under the name of Eberbasto. Very useful for all sorts of Eberspacher stuff.

I used armaflex to insulate my eberspacher pipes, bought from a local heating insulation supplier: http://www.armacell.com/www/armacell/armacell.nsf/ansHTMLSeitenLookUp/UK-TI_Frame?OpenDocument Select 'Heating & Plumbing' and then 'Class 0 Armaflex'.
Large variety of sizes, easy to use and cheaper than some of the alternatives.

Thanks Chaps:
I have replied to both PM'S.

The eberbasto one I had contacted, several times over the past 6 weeks as they are only about 2 miles from the boat but on every ocasion when I eventually get through on the mobile number I am told they are away for 2 weeks????.

Thanks also for the 2 links regarding the insulation.

Many thanks... Peter

I used black plastic drain pipe for the straight runs through lockers. Doesn't get flattened and is many bawbees cheaper than the real thing.

That’s innovative Awol:

How about the heat does it take it without any problems?
I also guess that you would be using 75mm pipe and put the ebber 60mm inside at the joints, how do you secure and seal the joints.

Thanks ........ Peter

I used exterior drain piping that seems happy with the temperature, certainly doesn't soften. As for joining - the "real" ducting fits nicely inside and I just wrapped the joint with duct tape - the first time I have used it for its stated purpose!
I also used a drain Y-joint, again much cheaper.
