Recommendations for building spill over freezer/reeder box?

Recommendations for building spill over freezer/reeder box?

You can always make up for that loss of a few btu by insulating the end where you are taking out the electrics to 9 inches of polyiso . Also you could put an inch on the bottom before you lay in your...

Re: Recommendations for building spill over freezer/reeder box?

Don't wast your time with the shiny foil , it adds nothing in R value . If anything it will add in thermal bridging . You don't want that .

As for Aerogel , doing a whole box with it, is...

Re: Recommendations for building spill over freezer/reeder box?

Just a few pics of building a box liner .

Note that this liner had to be cut in half to facilitate installation under the cabinetry and them glassed together in place,
