As demand for high-performance air ventilation systems continues to grow, installers and specifiers are looking for solutions that deliver faster installation, airtight performance, and long-term reliability. That’s why Centrotherm has introduced the new Air Excellent AE34C Click-Seal Ring in partnership with Ubbink; an innovation designed to simplify duct connections while improving ventilation performance.
Introducing the Air Excellent AE34C Click-Seal Ring
The new AE34C Click-Seal Ring connects Air Excellent ducts to system accessories, creating a reliable mechanical connection in seconds. Thanks to its patented click-and-seal technology, installers can achieve fast, tool-free installation with a simple push-fit connection.
Key Features & Benefits
- Airtight connections for reliable system performance
- Low pressure loss to help reduce fan energy use
- Quick, tool-free installation in just one click
- Patented 2-in-1 click and seal mechanism
- TÜV SÜD-certified for quality and safety
The integrated design also helps reduce on-site assembly errors and missing components, improving overall installation consistency.
What is Air Excellent?
Air Excellent, the Ubbink Air Ventilation range, is an engineered polyethylene semi-rigid duct system with anti-microbial properties. Designed for modern residential ventilation, it delivers airtight, energy-efficient airflow throughout the home.
The system helps:
- Ensures balanced air exchange throughout the dwelling
- Improves appliance energy efficiency
- Helps reduce the building’s carbon footprint
Air Excellent achieves this through continuous duct runs with mechanical airtight connections at each end, creating a reliable and efficient airflow pathway throughout the property.
Additional benefits include:
- Flow restrictors that ensure the correct airflow reaches each room
- Mechanically sealed ducting designed to minimize air leakage
- No duct seal, duct tape, or screwsrequiredduring installation
One Click Installation for Faster Air Duct Connections
Alternative duct installation often requires separate click rings and seals, increasing installation time and the potential for missing components. The new Air Excellent Click-Seal Ring eliminates this issue with an integrated solution that combines mechanical locking and airtight sealing into a single component.
Simply push the air duct into the accessory until you hear the audible click. This confirms both mechanical engagement and airtight sealing, creating a secure connection in seconds without tools.
For installers working with modern fresh air ventilation systems for home projects, this means:
- Faster installations
- Fewer loose components
- Reduced risk of installation errors
- Improved efficiency on site
This simplified approach also supports the wider Air Excellent philosophy of continuous airtight ducting without the need for tape, screws, or additional sealing materials.

Guaranteed Airtight Performance
Effective sealing is essential in modern ventilation systems, helping prevent air leakage, energy loss, and reduced indoor air quality.
The AE34C Click-Seal Ring delivers durable, reliable connections across the Air Ventilation range, from distribution boxes to valve adaptors.
By reducing pressure loss within the system, the Click-Seal Ring also helps lower fan energy consumption, improving the efficiency of the complete duct ventilation system. Combined with Air Excellent’s continuous mechanical airtight ducts and balanced airflow design, the system supports healthier indoor environments and long-term energy efficiency.
