Insulating the bedroom closets
I found condensation and ice behind some clothing in the rear bedroom closet, which is on an outside wall. The exterior walls are AZDEL panels, with a specified insulating value of R7 which was not entirely effective at -20C (-4F)

We had lots of heat, but the heat loss through the closet walls and ceiling was a problem, especially with lot of heavy clothing stowed in there, and the closet doors shut. Seems okay now, since I lined the closets with Reflectix. I covered the Reflectix with indoor-outdoor carpet to protect the insulation and give a better look. The Relectix is adhesed with two-sided carpet tape, and the carpet is laid on the insulation with really sticky mounting tape.
Carpet stuck to insulation with two-sided tape, which gives a finished look and adds to insulation and sound-proofing.
