I've been told that it is important to get the outside well sealed.
Else, you get moisture condensing and accumulating in the walls and
ceiling.

A floor that slopes to a drain is nice.

Shelving and flooring should allow for good circulation so warm
product will cool quickly. Mine is made from 1x4 lumber with about 2"
space between slats.
