   I moved a duct today and used the method Rico said, I moved it upstream   
   about 2 feet.   
   I used *duct* tape to seal it against the register then I put a giant zip   
   tie over the whole mess.   
   Believe it or not this house has heat-AC registers in the floor, and the one   
   in question was right where you will step out of the new shower, so it had   
   to go.   
   I was going to originally move it up high on the wall but the actual doing   
   was much more than I could deal with.
