EcoTec Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit
Insulating Hydroponic Rooms, Grow Tents, and Indoor Gardening Setups is quick, easy, and highly effective with the EcoTec Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit.
We understand hydroponics provide the optimal settings for growth so you can increase crop yields, reduce water use and reduce waste – they also provide for year round production.
However, Insulation is essential for temperature control as you do not want plants to be exposed to extreme heat or cold.
Why Choose EcoTec Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit?
Our EcoTec Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit is designed to improve light reflection, maintain optimal temperatures, and protect your plants, it’s the ultimate solution for year-round growth.
-
Maximise Light & Heat Reflection: Keeps plants thriving by reflecting heat and light evenly across your grow space.
-
Temperature Control: Maintains warmth in winter and prevents overheating in summer.
-
Energy Efficient: Reduces utility costs by optimising lighting and heating.
-
Moisture-Resistant: Protects walls, equipment, and plants from condensation and damp.
Insulate Your Hydroponic Room for All-Season Performance!
You can simply stick the Multifoil Insulation directly to the walls, with the Thermaseal Double Sided Tape provided. However, EcoTec Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit works best by creating a 25mm Airgap between the Insulation and the timber usually with 25mm Battens. This helps the product to reflect and also helps stop any Cold Bridging. When boarding internally a second 25mm airgap is recommended to create airspace either side of the Insulation, or of course you can leave the insulation exposed – which is common for this application.
Our Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit includes everything you require to insulate the Roof, Walls and, if you wish – the Floor. The EcoTec Hydroponics Reflective Insulation Kit is ideal for other applications.

How To Install Airtec Double
-
Measure Area & Cut Insulation
Measure the area of the section you are insulating. Then roll out the insulation and cut to size. Our insulation can be cut with scissors or a cutting knife, both these can be found in our multifoil fitting kit.
-
Staple EcoAirtec Double
To gain the best thermal performance it is recommended to have an air cavity either side if the insulation. Staple the insulation directly on the studs or rafters at 300mm centres. Once the next layer is installed, either horizontally or vertically, ensure the product is overlapped by 50mm.
-
Tape and Seal with Thermaseal Foil Tape
It is vital to ensure the insulation is fully taped and sealed using Thermaseal Foil Joining Tape. Our Foil Tape is 75mm therefore this will cover a 50mm overlap. It is crucial to ensure the insulation is fully taped and sealed over all overlaps and around the perimeter. This ensure the product works as a high performance Vapour Control Layer.
-
Counter Batten Insulation
Once the insulation is fully covered and taped and sealed, to gain the best thermal performance we recommend installing a counter batten over the top. 19mm deep battens would be suitable, spaced apart around 500mm. This will create a solid finish to screw the internal board to.
-
Finish with Internal Boarding
Finish the project by installing internal boarding on the battens. Plasterboard, cladding or timber boards are popular options.
What would you recommend using the EcoTec Insulation Kit for?
If you’re simply using the space as hydroponic rooms, grow tents, and indoor gardening setups we’d recommend using the EcoTec Hydropinics Reflective insulation kit as you don’t need the insulation to keep the space warm at all times it’ll help protect the contents from the elements.
Do I need to tape and seal the insulation?
Yes, we recommend taping and sealing over all joints and overlaps on the roof and walls. This will help the products to act as a high-performing vapor control layer. However, if you’re insulating the floor, you still need to tape and seal the perimeter but leave the overlaps un-taped, this will ensure any moisture will escape below.
Why do I need to overlap the insulation?
The insulation should be overlapped by 50mm because this will stop draughts from entering the space and warm air from escaping.
Do I need to leave an air gap?
This is not essential for this application - however, we do recommend that you have a minimum air gap of 25mm on either side of the insulation however if a larger air gap is present this will only benefit the insulation. The air gap will help reflect any heat inside and any cool air outside.
