DW/154 Specification For Plastics Ductwork

DW/154 defines the technical standards for the manufacture and installation of rectangular and circular plastics ductwork systems in building services engineering.

Reflecting advances in plastics technology, construction practices, and European standards alignment, DW/154 adopts the familiar layout and terminology of DW/144 to simplify specification, fabrication, and installation across the industry.

It provides comprehensive guidance on material selection, fabrication methods, air leakage classification, jointing techniques, hangers and supports, fire protection measures, thermal insulation, and air system performance requirements. The specification includes detailed technical tables, sample construction drawings, and best practice recommendations for systems installed in standard, external, and hostile environments.

Please Note:
This specification is currently under review for a future update.

Key Features:

• Standards for plastics ductwork design, materials, fabrication, and installation
• Defines pressure classes, allowable leakage rates, and testing procedures
• Guidance for fume extraction systems, external exposure, and fire protection
• Includes sample drawings, fabrication tables, and compliance templates
• Aligned with DW/144 structure for consistent reference across specifications
