Looking for alternate to rigid ducting on a gravity furnace. Is there a new school ducting for an old school gravity furnace? I will be removing the asbestos clad rigid ducting and am in need of an alternative.

It is time to retire that dinosaur of a furnace.
My guess is it is less than 50% efficient.
The real question is what fuel are you using and is it time to switch?

Do you really mean you will be paying a licensed abatement contractor or are you literally doing this as a DIY project?
