Combustible dusts are fine particles that present an explosion hazard when suspended in air under certain conditions according to OSHA. However, according to the OSHA Combustible Dust ANPR (Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking), “No single, universally accepted definition of combustible dust is available. Even among standard promulgated by the same standards-developing organization, the definitions vary significantly.”

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY:

Originally I was hesitating to order because of the long distance between Connecticut & Alabama, but found Air Handling Systems’ prices extremely reasonable – at least half of anyone in the area. Upon receiving the shipment I was pleased at how well packaged the product was. I was very pleased with my experience with Air Handling Systems, and plan to use them for subsequent jobs.
General Contractor, Mobile, Alabama
Outstanding Service and Technical Advice is why I continue to use Air Handling Systems. Speed in providing the needed materials and accuracy in system design tools are essential services provided by Air Handling Systems. The ease of installation helped save me money by using my own staff to install this entire system.
Cabinet Manufacturer, Whitestown, Indiana
Hello, I am writing this email because I was very impressed with your company. I recently made an order for my customer, a millwork shop in PA. When we received it there was only one box. I figured you have just stuffed my whole order in the box. Upon opening the box I was shocked to see it was very neatly packed. The other thing that impressed me was the quality of workmanship that was put into the product. I will be recommending you to several other contractors that deal in dust collecting systems.
Mechanical Contractor, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
The spiral pipes are of excellent quality. They fit together well. I am extremely pleased with the finished product.

Who ever does your packaging is the best I have ever seen. I also have ordered from a couple of your competitors. Tell him to keep up the good work.
Supply Company, Fishersville, Virginia
Just wanted to thank you for some of the best customer service I have had in sometime. I work part time at Woodcraft and will absolutely be recommending your company.

Super. Nice job. Thanks Curt! Everything installed smoothly the day after parts arrived. One of us has been grinding metal on the Burr-King ever since!

AIR-TIGHT

If your system leaks, you are literally wasting money. 10% leakage on a 50,000 CFM system will lose enough air to add five to six machines. All of our fittings are fully welded to eliminate leakage and give proper support that will last a lifetime. A properly installed system will not only be cost effective, but energy efficient. A connection with pop rivets and a silicone chemical bond will make your system completely airtight. We advise against using duct tape, it’s unsightly, the fabric deteriorates and it doesn’t have elasticity.

ADAPTABLE & EXPANDABLE

All duct work, also known as blowpipe, including spiral pipe, fittings and flexible hose are truly modular and adaptable to metric, rolled edge, angle iron ring or any older dust collection components. This allows you to easily make changes or expand your present system in the future.

STRONGER

Spiral pipe is up to 20% stronger than smooth pipe systems, due to spiral reinforcement in manufacturing process. Our fittings are up to 20% thicker in comparison to other competitors. Our products are designed to meet industrial standards.

DUST COLLECTION

Air Handling Systems supplies to a whole array of furniture and cabinetmakers, boat builders, mobile home manufacturers, sawmills and many other wood product manufacturers that are attendees of IWF (International Woodworking Fair) as well as members of the WMMA (Wood Machinery Manufacturers of America). We also work with paper mills and corrugated box manufacturers. We have provided systems to television shows such as the New Yankee Workshop and This Old House and woodworking publishing companies such as Taunton Press, publishers of Fine Woodworking.

COMBUSTIBLE DUST

Combustible dusts are fine particles that present an explosion hazard when suspended in air under certain conditions according to Combustible Dust resource page with links to several presentations by Air Handling Systems as well as links to additional resources such as NFPA 664: Standard for the Prevention of Fires and Explosions in Wood Processing and Woodworking Facilities.
