In my area it is code to use duct tape that is ul 181 rated. you must also use 181 rated mastic. A roll of tape and bucket of Mastic will cost a contractor around 30 dollars.

Just make sure you never use Duct Seal on Flex Duct, it won't work, and is not designed for Flex.

The air duct support and heat and A/C are important components of any home.
