First time poster, so hope I am asking this question in the best thread. If not, your advice on the most appropriate thread is appreciated.

I am currently building a HRV/ERV, but with a twist, in that it will be used to cool a small computer room in my home i.e. the external 'cooler' air will lower the temperature of the heat exchanger, which in turn will lower the temperature of the internal air.

I've noticed some of you building your own ERV/HRV units have been lining the enclosure with what looks like an adhesive product with a silver (aluminium) looking backing. I assume this is being used as a noise deadener/insulation or condensation protection.

I have also noted some of you using a silver tape to join everything together, and I suspect to water/air proof some sections of the ERV/HRV.

Is one of you able to give me advice on the lining and tape products you have used?

Thanks, Mark
