Hi guys
OK well finally after a trip around Australia the purchase of a new house its finally time.....to build or WFO.
Im using a locally produced kit which dosnt supply any insulation for the floor - though uses 60mm bricks with the recomendation of 4" of Vermiculite concrete but my question is has anyone used Hebel power panels as the base without insulation? Hebel panel is reinforced with reinforcing bar so strength is not an issue its more a question of insulation properties Im concerned about.
So do you think Hebel panel on its own will be enough or will I need some Calcium Silicate board as well - Im trying to avoid using the board as its pretty expensive - $225 for the oven.
Thanks for your help
Mike
