I've heard that duct tape isn't good to use for sealing ducts.

You heard wrong. Nasa designed duct tape specifically for taping ducts in space shuttles.


You may have heard "Duck" tape isn't good for taping ducts.

^^^ while NASA did use duct tape, they didn't design or invent it. It was around for military purposes 15-20 years before NASA was even established.
