Grow Room Examples Made Using PVC

I need to build two rooms out of PVC 2" inside of a single bedroom, one for stage 1 and one for stage 2. I would love to see some examples of PVC grow rooms including pics. How did you attach the PVC to the ground do you just use a wood board and attach a 2" slip fitting for the 2" PVC to fit into so it is supported from the bottom? I am sick of my crappy setup which has numerous staple holes and light leaks. I figured PVC cut just short of the ceiling and with Panda pulled tightly over the top PVC frame and pulled tightly down and wrapped over the bottom pvc piece, and taped together would be a much better setup. I have no idea how to make a room using PVC correctly, hence my post... Thanks again for your help, and please provide pics and info. Any links to other good PVC setups on here would also be great, as I could not find any when I searched for them. Thanks again!!

probably could get a couple small tents for close to the same price of the wood/pvc/fittings/panda film.

Frame the walls with 1x2's there like 2 bucks or less for 10 feet. Use panda plastic. About a buck for 1x10 foot. You can build it for less then 1 tent.

Thx War... Can you insulate them using the solid foam insulation from HD or Lowes, if I use 1x2s? I was thinking that PVC would not allow for insulating.

No you can't insulate that. Insulation is made to fit with 2x4's and hard walls. Plastic sheeting is just good for splitting rooms and blocking/reflecting light. but you can use the silver bubble wrap stuff. Then cover with the plastic. It is more expensive but might be more of what your looking for.

Thx guys! If you cant use insulation with 1 x 2s then I think using PVC would be a better idea bc it is cheaper and no need for stapling etc. How do you attach the sheeting to the PVC when you use PVC? Do you guys attach the solid foam insulation boards to the complete inside of the entire room (all 4 walls, ceiling and floor) and then build the PVC tents inside using PVC with plastic sheeting? I am trying to make a PVC setup while simultaneously protecting the room from FLIR. Thanks for your help all!

Thx all for your responses... I really would like to see some pics of PVC rooms. The video did spark some ideas Dank.I want a framed PVC room because it is much more rigid and sealed and the walls wont blow when I have TONS of airflow...
