I am rebuilding the
insulation of my fridge through the top.
I have already removed the old
insulation (bottom was fully soaked, on one side 1/4 of the insulation was missing). Here is my plan: fair the box, cover with a layer of glass with
epoxy for vapour protection. Use layers of Cryogel and finish with 1" XPS as the innermost layer. Laminate with glass and
epoxy the inside. (Make a hole on the side for the lines, glue in an epoxy pipe). This way the insulation will be completely sealed.
Comments?
1. What kind of glue should I use for XPS and Cryogel?
2. How easy it is to
work with Cryogel, what I should be careful of?
3. My understanding is that Cryogel is soft. At the bottom of the fridge I plan to use many layers of Cryogel and an XPS board on top. Would the Cryogel base layer get compressed? Would you recommend to install supports to hold the XPS board so the Cryogel does not get compressed (I know that this would be a thermal bridge)?
3. Any further
advice or tips?
