200mm Round Ducting Straight Connector
This connector joins two 200mm round rigid ducting sections together on a straight duct run, extending the run beyond a single pipe length. It is part of the Luxair 8" ducting range for high-power extraction systems.
Important — Ducting Tape Required at All Joints
This connector is not self-sealing push-fit. Unlike the push-fit components in the Luxair 125mm and 150mm ducting ranges, this 200mm connector requires ducting tape to be applied at both joints to ensure an airtight seal throughout the duct run. Failure to tape the joints will result in air leakage and reduced extraction performance.
Note on Product Appearance
This connector may arrive in a different colour from the image shown — this is normal variation across production batches. All connectors supplied are the correct part for the Luxair 200mm ducting range regardless of colour.
200mm Ducting Is Required for High-Power Motors
Cooker hoods with motor ratings between 950m³/hr and 2,000m³/hr must be installed with 200mm (8") ducting to achieve full extraction performance and quiet operation. Using smaller diameter ducting on these motors increases operational noise and hood vibration. Always use 200mm ducting throughout the complete duct run on any hood rated above 950m³/hr.
Ducting Size Guide
Selecting the correct ducting diameter for your motor output ensures maximum extraction performance:
- Below 450m³/hr → 100mm (4") ducting
- 450–750m³/hr → 125mm (5") or 150mm (6") ducting
- 750–2,000m³/hr → 150mm (6") or 200mm (8") ducting
