Well.. perhaps it's a little soon to give an all clear.. but it made it through some 35MPH winds.. and days of cold down to the low teens.. always keeping it above 38 inside... but with 94% humidity.. in the 65* temps of two days ago.. before the 12 hours of snow..we moved everything out.. and installed alovely thick all wool carpet.. with a bright up beat design.. to help keep the floor warmer... also... the heat loss through the metel framing was addressed with strips of 1/2 " foam... secured to the metal... this will make it more evenly warm.. and it removes the condensation which was forming on the cool metal.. and dripping down... all issues have now been delt with.. and we're ready for the 3 months of the severe road testing... to come.. but it looks good to go ..
