       I've accessed small crawl spaces for repair / replacement work by cutting holes in the floor. Closets, under cabinets, and other discreet areas can help provide easier access. And if the finished flooring is carpeting, it's fairly simple to make & repair access holes.....

    I did that in my own home when I put in new plumbing for a bathroom, not a mobile home, though. Here there is a one piece plastic underbelly and metal framing. Not even sure how I'm going to strap the flex duct up yet. Since there aren't any.
