    Except he said himself that it will get cold. Flexwat doesn't help with ambient temperatures .

    I have a small heater pointed at my racks to help with ambient temps.

    That still wouldnt make that much of a difference for ambient air temps, which is what the OP is talking about.

    Re: Closet balls??

    I had the same exact issues you where having. What i do is insulate the closet, and throw an electric blanket over my rack. The electric blanket is very energy efficient and does not pose any fire hazard.
