Someone in a forum recommended spray foam over the peel-n-stick stuff as it will completely seal and provides a better R-value, however, I can't figure out how I'd apply it evenly, or get it to form into a shape. | |

The trick is keeping the warm moist air away from the duct, if sealed up with insulation there won't be any moisture to grow mold. | |
