"have we reached a verdict on whether to have an air gap or not"
When you use any of this thin type insulation, the air gap is a part of the thermal break. Reading this thread I noticed the comment about using the layered type insulation in the floor. This won't be that effective because you are squeezing all the air out of it. Should be very effective in the panels though (although as it's part fabric I wonder if that would trap moisture too? I'm looking at the foil bubble wrap type.

So I've been reading all the insulation threads and still can't work out how I attach the Thermo wrap onto/inside the doors. Also what should I use as sound proofing?
once the sound proofing/thermowrap is inside the panels do I need to seal it all up with plastic then the door card's etc??
Just picked up the thermo wrap from Tesco direct (still on buy one get one free!!) so I really want to crack on with the job
Thanks

If its not broken, tinker with it, then when you break it phone your dad. Work's well for me!
