I'm looking for the thick Styrofoam to line the walls with. My pumphouse is a wooden structure and a bit drafty so lightbulb won't do it. I just use a Milkhouse heater below 12. http://philippinebolomachete.weebly.com/ missing S.E. Asia a bit https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=lefties43332 im steve
