Would putting sheets of styrofoam on the inside of a house work as insulation against the heat?
If so, is it available at a regular ferreteria/costruction material place?
Many years ago I saw a DIY decorator project that covered the styrofoam with fabric (glue or staples) and then covered the wall. Obviously the styrofoam was cut first to fit and cover the wall.
Would that work covering 1 wall in the bedroom to reduce the heat? It is a west facing wall. Would it be worth it?The south facing wall is shaded by plants.
Would the styrofoam hold up to the humidity?
Yes the walls are cement blocks.
Many thanks
