Stop if

Hold point on insulation compression at supports: I have the location, photo, drawing/detail/spec/submittal, and what I checked. Who should verify before this gets covered, tested, started, labeled, or turned over?

Watch out

Do not crank straps so tight they crush insulation. Do not let insulated duct rest on sharp strut edges without protection if spec requires saddles.
