It's factory insulated and covered with Luan now. I'm just going to go over the top of that. I'm certain with the drywall that i'll get air tightness. The radiant barrier should really reflect the heat back out.
It's a crapshoot. I'm just going to take my chances and see what happens. I'm sure that regardless I'll have the most insulated trailer in my neck of the woods :).
I'm going to conduct some tests before and after. Will post photos and test results.
