I've been thinking about disconnecting two 6" flex ducts from the HVAC supply line that are a few feet apart. If I went that route, I was thinking of screwing a piece of matal slightly larger than the ducts onto the supply line to seal it up. I could use metal duct tape for the edges.
Another thought was to clamp the ducts completely flat within a few feet of where they are attached to the supply line. I'm still not sure what would be best to use for clamping them, or if it would seal them off completely that way. Either way I want to have the option to use them again in the future if I decide to condition the sunroom again.
For the past few years, I have had the louvers in the ends of them shut, but enough air gets through that I have to leave the sunroom door cracked so there isn't a large negative pressure issue (just two supply ducts in there, no return).
Has anyone heard of or done either of the methods I'm thinking about to completely seal off/disconnect the ductwork for that room?
