<p>I made custom size insulated boxes with Styrofoam insulation board and foamboard adhesive in a caulk tube. I stuck some thick foam weatherstripping on the edges that hit the house and pushed them on. I had one blow off once from too much wind blowing in the front door and nowhere else to go, so now I use a 1" web strap screwed to the house to keep it snug and air-tight. They look better and feel more durable with a couple coats of paint.</p>

Insulated wooden boxes on the outside look best and can be sealed best.

Before you put the cover on, throw the breaker for the ac.

Not possible sir. I use the 220 receptacles for the heaters. Looking at your location you forgot about heaters
