I live in an older apartment, and have had problems maintaining proper temps at times during the winter months ( I also have 3" tape)
A friend told me to insulate the back of my rack with Reflectix. Best thing I ever did. http://www.lowes.ca/reflective-insul...oc=reCanonical
Can you post a picture of how your rack looks with the reflectix? And how did you attach it?

Re: Heat tape in rack
Don't mean to bump this, but I'm getting my rack tomorrow and was wondering if some of you could post pictures on how and where your probe is placed on the heat tape. Will be greatly appreciated thanks!

MJT Simply get some of the heat tape/electricle tape, And place it in contact on heat tape but where the bin wont push and shove it! THERE ALSO another way which you could do it semi helps set temp INSIDE if you dont want to play
Step 1: Get some material the the same as your tubs are made out of"
Step 2: Tape the prob onto that material
Step 3: Tape that onto the heat tape (if you use no substrate of course
But many people do the plain ol fashion way of Just taping prob directly on the heat tape (usually mid shelf or as close to mid as u can get)

AP racks come with a slot milled in for probe placement...
