A LOT of good advice and from the Pro's who Know ! I am very lucky to have such advisors and I thank you very much.

Still thinking though, still in a semi-dither.........

My insulation is preassembled all in one sheet. It has 2 layers of dbl.bubble in the middle and is covered with aluminum on each side.
Perhaps because I AM listening..( tigerlily & Eggs), I will leave some of this insulation off the east wall also. Maybe I can use clear stuff over there.

Nautical, you have made great strides my man, approaching 3 star status! On a serious note as I read your words I see you have both feet in the game and my hat is off to you!
To answer your question about auxillary back-up, when I did the stone wall foundation I added a U shaped 4" PVC pipe that goes from the outside buried in my garden to the GH inside as an access for a propane hose etc.
I at this time have a large Mr.Heater or heater buddy that puts out about 18,000 BTU, I believe.
In case of pwer loss I will use that for now.. Your GH is beautiful!

Streebaby? come on in please. I have to keep some beautiful plants warm that a good friend gave me.

It's all good fun. Isn't it.
