just using common sense.
Sorry to tread on your toes pipoz, but if your happy with just an air cavity, that's fine. Not going to dispute that it is effective, but for not much more outlay ie foil, its 50% better.
Most people will build to a compromise they are happy to live with. Lets face it, even a badly built thai style brick house can be made acceptably comfortable with an airconditioner. But that's not the point. Just a little more thought and effort can make it better built and cheaper to run. Win Win. Sorry if I appear blunt at times, but I hope I can inspire people to do a better job, not be happy with near enough. I am an aussie, I call BS for what it is.
