Nova Verta Paint Booth Exhaust Ductwork
Nova Verta paint booth exhaust ductwork has to move air from the booth to a suitable discharge point while fitting the building around it. Double D Mechanical plans and installs duct routes with attention to fan placement, roof or wall penetrations, supports, make-up air, maintenance access and nearby production areas.

Exhaust Route Selection
The best route is usually the one that keeps airflow practical while avoiding structural, utility and access conflicts. The review should include the booth exhaust opening, duct size and direction, elbows, fan location, stack path and any roof or wall conditions that affect installation.
Support and Penetration Details
Ductwork needs support from the booth to the discharge point. Double D Mechanical reviews hanger locations, roof curbs, wall openings, nearby beams, sprinkler lines, conduit and overhead doors so the route can be installed without creating service or clearance problems.
- Confirm roof or wall penetration locations before fabrication.
- Check overhead conflicts along the entire duct path.
- Leave access for fan service and future duct inspection.
Make-Up Air Interaction
Exhaust ductwork cannot be planned alone. The booth needs replacement air so the fan is not pulling against the building. Existing make-up air units, intake openings, doors and pressure-sensitive areas should be reviewed when the exhaust route changes.
Field Data for Duct Planning
Useful preparation includes booth drawings, fan information, ceiling height, roof access, structural notes, photos of the proposed route and any existing ductwork. Marking nearby utilities and production constraints helps the field plan stay realistic.
Frequently asked questions
What is included in exhaust ductwork planning?
Planning can include duct routing, fan location, supports, roof or wall penetrations, discharge path, make-up air coordination and access for maintenance.
Can existing ductwork be reused?
Existing ductwork can be reviewed, but its condition, route, size, supports, fan connection and discharge location need to match the booth and facility needs.
Why does make-up air matter for exhaust ductwork?
A booth that exhausts air needs replacement air. Without enough make-up air, booth performance and building pressure can become unstable.
What should be photographed before a ductwork visit?
Photograph the booth exhaust area, ceiling path, roof or wall penetration options, fan area, nearby utilities and any existing ductwork or supports.
