The rule of thumb with reflective foil is to have it facing the air gap. You did it right. If there is no air gap, you lose the thermal benefits.

in short order the shiny metal will be a dull grey, no maintenance, keep your black paint handy for the maintenance issue of painted aluminum

Hey Rick... Formation in the company street in FIVE MINUTES with full gear!! Hahahaha........ Hey, you make a LOT of jumps before your first HALO, and you'll drive a lot of screws and nails before you reach perfection. In my opinion, the "Sergeant Major" says ya dun good! I'm not familiar with that in-wall vent, so I have to reserve my comments. Make sure it's higher than the highest drain. If you seal the wall around it, is it still going to work as a vent? I don't know, I'm not there looking at it, but I'd be tempted to put a couple elbows in the line and vent it outside. If I remember from an earlier video, you're using a composting toilet, so you won't have 'black water' passing through that vent, but it'll still off-gas from your septic. Another solution to your aluminum skirt would be bending some scrap in a 90 and pop-riveting it onto the corners. Installing the 'T' so you can pump RV anti-freeze thru the system is a fantastic idea. It's in front of the pump so you'll pump anti-freeze into the pump and filter, protecting both those (expensive) items. Finally, Britney, your Mom knocked it outta the park with those curtains!! Every time you look at them you'll think of her.................

As always thanks for the encouraging and insightful recommendations sir! The wall vent is just a 12v RV exhaust vent, it is perfectly fitted to the outside of the structure, should do the trick for this application without running vent pipe. We are not going with a composting toilet but a porta potti 565E Curve toilet see why here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jyIcrBgPRnQ.html So our shower and hand washing sink will just be draining grey water into our premade drain field. I added the winterization tee with a valve and vinyl tubing to do the RV style winterization of the pump and system as needed. You know it my mom helped Brittany sew the curtains on a recent visit, she is one heck of a seamstress at 80! Thanks again @carlmclelland7624
