Nah. I prefer smooth walls. Only if it will help in some way. I really don't want to tear up the ceiling but I may have to around the heat duct so I can re-arrange it the way I want it. I'll be removing the cover around the pole and probably build one out of sheetrock so that it at least matches the wall.
