Budget insulation around the tent?

[Benjic93]

Summink like they use to insulate caravans or camper vans may do job and you can get it sticky backed so easy to fix to your tent, tape corners up, jobs a good en hopefully. Not cheap but not overly expensive like kingspan https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284153256453 ... SwtbFgBtNw

Hero. Any experience with it? Be a nice easy job just sticking it to the tent.

Not really unless you can call watching my brother insulate camper van with it. Defo needs the metal foiled aluminum tape though on edges or joins before covering with duct tape. That helps keep heat in my brother tole me .

Have you got your extractor on full blast?, just that even if you have the best insulation money can buy if you sucking that much air out of the tent all the cold airs going back in, i find having a fan controller on to slow the fan down and also a timer to turn that fan on and off on for 5 minutes off for 15 or something like that works well to keep the heat up.

You can also get insulation called something like space blanket. Comes on a roll and you can get it in BQ used for loft insulation..

Ye I have a fan controller. Its a digital hyperfan. Turned almost all the way down. Just enough for negative pressure. I guess i have to bring in fresh air either way and the air is about 3c atm outside. I'm just going to have to wait until it warms up I think. Sitting on a ton of beans aswell :(

Do you know If it's any good? Can't find much reviews on it? Would be ideal finding something like that that works great. Easy enough to pack away for summer months then aswell

Suppose people live in camper vans. Must be pretty good

Run light 24/7 and grow auto`s through winter, like Vador mentioned i think. Lights on temps are sound at 20c to grow shit loadsa buddage.

Are you pulling air from outside into the shed?

I was in a brick built garage for ages, I insulated the door with kingspan and just vented and drew air in/from the garage. 1kw oil radiator turned to 500w, on an inkbird controller, probe in the tent and the oil rad outside the tent with my ducting taped to it. When I had room it went in the tent, with a fan blowing through it.

Looking at your set up, I'd just grab a couple of sheets of 50mm kingspan, cut them to size and just balance them on themselves around the tent. You can take them with you when you move then. Stick a radiator inbetween the kingspan and the tent. Job done.

Tube heaters are not worth a wank BTW.

Nice work, just out of interest what did you use to design that?
