Duct Tape fixes everything. Insulation to shed walls, naughty children and talkative girlfriends :-P

Seriously though, how are you insulating the door? and is there any sort of ventilation? (are there any problems with moisture in these kind of rooms?)

is there any means of controlling moisture that doesn't cool the shed down so much as an exhaust fan would/do you plan to cover the hole for the fan somehow when it'd not in use so you're not losing the benefits of insulating the room? (or would heat lost through a hole that sze not be substantial enough to worry about?)

In a fish shed, being too cool isn't too big an issue in our climate smile.gif

But anyway, you could use a dehumidifier, or trays of some kind of desiccant like calcium sulfate?

IMpressive mate! So jealous of all these fish sheds going up...

Thanks Kieran... though dessicants sound kind of expensive (is there an alternative to "closet camels" etc?)

Anyway Scotty, looks like it's going well. Really hoping to start a similar project soon.
