I cannot provide help regarding the walls, but I just wanted to say that 
you should be aware that there are several other ways to achieve what 
you are trying to do. I think creating a 'vacuum layer' has already been 
suggested to you before, but another possibility is the use of a double 
membrane system. Depending upon your needs, either of these two may be 
easier for you to setup.

Cheers
