Spanish list serve, talking about "insulating" clay floors,
the following observation was made:</p><div><font

class="Apple-style-span" style="FONT-SIZE: 13px"><br
/></span></font></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"
style="FONT-SIZE: 13px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">"Otra pregunta: no sé
si en la capa de aislamiento se podría añadir además ceniza?. Sé que la
ceniza se utiliza como muy buen aislante en hornos de barro tanto en la
solera del horno como mezclada con el barro (yo mismo la he empleado).
Sería una posibilidad de reutilizar un residuo sobretodo la gente que
produce cantidades importantes (chimeneas, cocinas económicas,
estufas...)."</span></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span"

13px"><br /></span></font></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span"
style="FONT-SIZE: 13px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana">"one more question: I
don't know if in the insulation layer (of the clay floor) it would be
possible to add ashes? I know that ashes are frequently used as good
insulation in clay ovens-both in the floor of the oven and in the clay.
Would it be possible to re-use a residue (ashes) that many people
produce in important cuantities?</span></div><div><font

of people still use wood-burning stoves and ovens, as well as
fire-places...</span></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span"
