I'd go for the next one up Wu. The superquilt. It's amazing insulation, linked he loft with it in summer and as soon as it was on the temps dropped massively. They do it in smaller lengths.
Do you think it will work if I wrap it around my tent? The price on that though lol. Thanks for recommendation

I made my chamber with Reflectix brand insulation which I think is essentially what you have linked to there.

https://www.reflectixinc.com/

The other plus about using this product is it has flame resistant specs too so is “safer” than other types of fiberglass insulation. Especially in areas with electric and water.

Thats my 2 cents.
Thank you dude. Looks good. Will deffo bare this in .kind especially with it being fire resistant.

same as what my grow cupboard is lined with, Nice idea mate :oik!:
Nice one mate. Is it the same one from toolstation? I'm tryna wrap my tent in it as I think it will be easier. I can't be arsed gutting the inside to fit this, and my paranoia tells me it's safed instead of it accidently catching fire with th3 fan heater inside lol

Dude rigid rockwool panels are cheap, fire proof, and good insulation. Also look at the aluminium three layer stuff that prevents radiant heat loss. I used that, roll insulation and rock panel instead of plasterboard in my workshop and it gets warm off body heat.
That's another option. If I'm wrapping it around the tent then corners may become a pain to go round but it should still help minimize heat loss so it could still work. Which ones have you got?

Hi mate, Yes wrap the outside of the tent. The tent is in a single skin garage. I vent inside the garage, pointed towards the vents on the sides/eaves.
