Should a basement be IR-proofed? Just the ceiling and parts above ground?

Trying to design for a few months out..

I figured it wouldn't be visible from a chopper, as I've got 2 floors over the basement, but I thought it was best to be prudent, if nothing else.

Thanks.

Anyone else weigh in on that?

It doesnt matter where you grow room is. Every video I've seen on Infered and Flir cameras always shows the heat coming from the vented lights. The videos are on here somewhere. One showed the roof of a house. You could clearly see the heat coming from one of the vents on the roof. So just becareful where you vent your lights.
