Can you post a pic/link for that tool you mentioned for the zip ties? Thanks!

Years ago, I added a bunch of roll insulation to our attic in Houston in late May or early June. It was MISERABLE, but totally worth it.

I got quotes for insulation, and everyone wanted to use the sprayed in crap which I didn't like the idea of. What I found was that there was some Johns Manville that has the insulation fully encapsulated in a thin tube which REALLY cuts down on the itchyness of f/g insulation.

On the matter of ducting, all of the ducting in our home is insulated flexible duct that is, I believe ~30-35 years old. It seems to work remarkably well despite the fact that I understand rigid metal ducting to be greatly preferred for functionality and efficiency.
