A duct system with multiple flex duct sections includes a duct take off, a duct register boot, at least one flexible duct assembly that includes an inlet coupler, an outlet coupler, and a duct section. The inlet coupler and outlet coupler are terminally connected to the duct section completing the flexible duct assembly as the number of duct assemblies determines the length of the duct system. The duct takeoff is mounted to the inlet coupler, and the duct register boot is mounted to the outlet coupler as the duct takeoff is in fluid communication with the duct register boot through the flexible duct assembly. Additionally, an air controlling device can be mounted with respect to three different places, wherein the three different places are in between two couplers, the coupler and the duct takeoff, and the duct register boot and the coupler to improve the efficiency of the duct system.
