how warm is a insulated fish house?

[mrpike1973]

i just bought a 4 x 8 fish house on skids home made steel siding like on a pole shed. it has 1 inch thick styrofoam on the walls and ceiling the floor is not insulated. over the foam is very thin paneling of some sort over it . appears to be very solid how well will this hold heat ive never had a insulated house. i hope to heat it with a mr buddy. just wondering the last house i had was a steel 4 x6 and i could freeze with even a sunflower heater in it thanks

I had a 6x10 with a uninsulated floor and the 1" thick pink foam insulation in the walls (covered with a heavier paneling) and it would get REALLY warm in there with the sunflower heater. Would sleep and sometimes fish the next morning in my unders with no probs.

yeah with that small of a house and being insulated you should have no problem fishing comfy in a t-shirt. Not sure how much heat a Mr. buddy throws but with a sunflower you will be roasting in no time. Enjoy the new house!

I built a 6x8 spear house last year. Walls and ceiling are insulated with 1" stryofoam, floor is not insulated. I got it done slid it out of the garage and put my buddy heater in it. It was 5 degrees outside. I left the heater in it for an hour and it got to 95 degrees inside.

I have a 30x48 spear hole and I very rarely put my heater on high.

pretty consistent here. My 6x8 house is insulated with 1 inch styrofoam on the walls, not in floor. The sunflower set on low is too much to handle. I haven't measured degrees, but i've been in there on sub zero days with shorts/tshirt and was ready to pull that off. lol So it does get warm and keeps it comfortable. I wouldn't have a shanty w/o it, that's for sure.
