Field checklist

Ask foreman

The liner is loose at this connection. Do you want it secured per the liner detail before we close this joint?

Do not

Do not rely on the duct connection to trap loose liner in place.

Why it matters

Insulation affects access, vapor barrier, condensation control, inspections, TAB/service access, and finished-work quality. Project specs and manufacturer details still control.
