I have read mixed reviews on C3 but would like an update of what people think of it and does it actually work?

First, police in the USA need a warrant before they can use FLIR cameras on your property. Beyond that, when they do use FLIR cameras to see if your growing, they are looking at where the heat is escaping from out of your house. Excessive heat coming from a garage door, a bedroom window or a vent near your roof would be the most common giveaways. Putting special film on your walls by itself won't do anything about the heat, because it still has to escape somewhere. Instead you would be better off looking for ways to vent the heat under your house or into the ground. Adding layers of insulation is always a good idea to help with keeping your electrical costs down, but I'd be wary of buying any product that was specifically marketed towards defeating FLIR. Should you get busted, that's just one more thing they could use against you.

Have you thought about running your exhaust through a chiller before it leaves your house?

As for exhaust heat heat you could always run it through evaporative cooler. As for walls not sure, but I think creating sort of inner "chamber" with walls made of from gypsum boards with few inches of air filled space between them and actual walls should help - thats a bit of work though. My builder uncle always claimed that air filled gap in outer wall is one of best ways to insulate a house, he's been quite successful in what he was doing so maybe there's some truth in this.
