I was thinking of putting some insulation on it - anyone else done this? Maybe I could replace the tube with a PVC pipe, then put the insulation around that, or just put the insulation around the accordion style duct work.

There are two flaps covering these side ducts, that are spring loaded, and appear as though there should be something attached to the flaps, but I don't see anything there. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I can't find a diagram online to understand how this was supposed to work.
