Problem: Unprotected steel was exposed to moisture repeatedly at this transition piece of duct work. The moisture enabled corrosion that began destroying this section of duct work. Undetermined repair or replacement times were not a good option for this particle board manufacturer. Due to the critical production need of this equipment and to the elevated location of the transition piece it was important to preserve it from failing.
