I was thinking to save energy to use a type of styrofoam to insulate my custom sump and refugium. My filtration is located in my garage where I see huge temp swings from summer to winter. In the winter I have a huge inline pond heater and in the summer I run a chiller. The room temperature is never ideal for the system as I'm always fighting it. My Idea was to insulate the tanks with some 1 inch thick styrofoam especially between the chiller and sump wall.
Has anyone ever attempted this and what was your experience? Any advice or thoughts welcome.
