A Cold Room

You would think that after all the research, calls, estimates, time, labour and the expense of putting in a new, very efficient heating system we would actually want to make one room cold. Well we did, in our basement on an outside wall, a great place to store our harvest, when we have a harvest next year. It is just over 7 feet long and 6 feet wide and a little over 6 feet high. The walls and ceiling are insulated and I remembered to put the vapor barrier on the warm side like you would when you insulate your walls. I still have to get a door knob and one of those weather covers for the bottom of the door. There is a plug in there near the window so we can get cool air in or humid air out. It should work well.

Framed up nicely.

A good size.

Coming to gether.

Need light.

Almost done.

Just have to add the door.

There is plenty of room.

Looks small, but it will work for us.
