I getting the plan together to build a fermenting chamber and I have some questions about it. I'm planning to use an old window AC I have in the shed. I want to use this foam insulation:

Idk if there is any reason I mostly see everyone using the purple/pink stuff?
And I'm wondering about the bottom of the fermenting chamber. Do most people set a fermentor right on the foam bottom? I was thinking of putting something, mostly likely plywood over the foam on the bottom. I'm not sure how strong the foam is going to be with 3-4 fermentors in there.
Is there any need to add some sort of barrier, ie spraying something over the foam insulation or do most just leave it as is?
The window AC is digital so is there going to be a need for a temperature control?
Thanks for any help
