An insulated HVAC duct component such as a transition box includes a first insulation layer and a second, different insulation layer. The transition box includes at least four sidewalls and one of a top and a back wall, the transition box further including a first access port and a second access port, the first access port having a different cross section than the second access port, one of the access ports being spaced from a nearest sidewall by less than 2 inches. The first insulation layer is located along an inside surface of the box. The second different insulation layer overlies the first insulation layer, the second different insulation layer having an air impervious surface, wherein the combined thickness of the first insulation layer and the second different insulation layer is less than 2 inches.

1. A method comprising: (a) moving a plurality of sidewalls of a reflective laminate insulating assembly from a first transport configuration, wherein a majority of a base and a majority of each of the plurality of sidewalls are parallel to an installation configuration, wherein each of the pluralit
1. A method comprising: (a) moving a plurality of sidewalls of a reflective laminate insulating assembly from a first transport configuration, wherein a majority of a base and a majority of each of the plurality of sidewalls are parallel to an installation configuration, wherein each of the plurality of sidewalls is inclined relative to the base; wherein the reflective laminate insulating assembly includes a base, a first sidewall extending from the base and a second sidewall extending from the base, at least one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall terminating at a free edge and a portion of the first sidewall is affixed to a portion of the second sidewall, independent of the base; and(b) disposing the reflective laminate insulating assembly in the installation configuration adjacent a portion of an HVAC duct component. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the HVAC duct component is metallic. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the HVAC duct component is a transition box. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising locating the reflective laminate insulating assembly adjacent an inside surface of the HVAC duct component. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising locating the reflective laminate insulating assembly adjacent an outside surface of the HVAC duct component. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the reflective laminate insulating assembly includes an upper reflective layer, a bottom reflective layer and a cellular layer intermediate the upper reflective layer and the bottom reflective layer. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein at least one of the base and the plurality of sidewalls includes a line of weakness for removing a corresponding portion of the at least one of the base and the plurality of sidewalls. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising disposing a layer of mineral wool adjacent to one of the base and the plurality of sidewalls. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein disposing the reflective laminate insulating assembly in the installation configuration adjacent a portion of an HVAC duct component includes disposing the reflective laminate insulating assembly adjacent an inside surface of the HVAC duct component. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein disposing the reflective laminate insulating assembly in the installation configuration adjacent a portion of an HVAC duct component includes disposing the reflective laminate insulating assembly adjacent an outside surface of the HVAC duct component. 11. The method of claim 1, further comprising removing a portion of the at least one of the base and the plurality of sidewalls corresponding to a cutout in the at least one of the base and the plurality of sidewalls. 12. A method comprising: (a) forming a reflective laminate body having a base, a first sidewall extending from the base and a second sidewall extending from the base, at least one of the sidewalls terminating at a free edge, wherein a portion of the first sidewall is affixed to a portion of the second sidewall, independent of the base, wherein the base and the sidewalls are movable between a first transport configuration wherein a majority of the base and a majority of each of the sidewalls are parallel and an installation configuration wherein the sidewalls are inclined relative to the base; and(b) disposing the reflective laminate body in the first transport configuration for shipping of the reflective laminate body. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the reflective laminate body includes an upper reflective layer, a bottom reflective layer and a cellular layer intermediate the upper reflective layer and the bottom reflective layer. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the base, the first sidewall and the second sidewall are formed of a single piece. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein at least one of the base, the first sidewall and the second sidewall includes a line of weakness for removing a corresponding portion of the at least one of the base, the first sidewall and the second sidewall. 16. The method of claim 12, wherein one of the base, the first sidewall and the second sidewall further comprise an adhesive. 17. A method comprising: (a) forming a reflective laminate body having a base, a first sidewall extending from the base, a second sidewall extending from the base, a third sidewall extending from the base and a fourth sidewall extending from the base, at least one of the sidewalls terminating at a free edge, at least one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall having a collapsing fold line within a periphery of the one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall, the base and the sidewalls movable between (i) a first transport configuration wherein a majority of the base and a majority of each of the sidewalls are parallel and the one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall folds about the collapsing fold line so that a first portion of the one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall is parallel to and overlaps a second portion of the one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall and (ii) an installation configuration wherein the sidewalls are inclined relative to the base; and(b) disposing the reflective laminate body in the first transport configuration for shipping of the reflective laminate body. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall includes a projecting tab for engaging a remaining one of the first sidewall and the second sidewall. 19. A method comprising: (a) forming a reflective laminate body having a base, a first sidewall extending from a first edge of the base, a second sidewall extending from a second edge of the base, a third sidewall extending from a third edge of the base and a fourth sidewall extending from a fourth edge of the base, the base and the sidewalls movable between a first transport configuration wherein a majority of the base and a majority of each of the sidewalls are parallel and an installation configuration wherein the sidewalls are inclined relative to the base, and the reflective laminate including an upper reflective layer, a bottom reflective layer and a cellular layer intermediate the upper reflective layer and the bottom reflective layer; and(b) disposing the reflective laminate body in the first transport configuration for shipping of the reflective laminate body. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein at least one of the sidewalls includes a projecting tab.
