Alpha's T4 Spiritual Core Boost and Destiny's T4 Ageless will help you to reach perma PA. Also your build can be tweaked much more to get the defense stats you are aiming for.
Was hoping to use Endurance Reduction alpha... but I see that getting recharge may also help perma Heat loss, How do you add alpha slot in new mids?
What would you do to get extra def ?
Consciousness: that annoying time between naps.
There is the incarnate tab at the top of mids. Double click it to open the incarnate window and pick you tree and tier. Make sure it is toggled on when you look at the stats.
As for ranged def... I have never really found it nessessary. with PA perma, there isnt much aggro I pull. I am sitting at 32.5ish to sm/l so a small purple brings me up to softcap but rarely need to bother.

I have the Ice armor from the Ice APP on my Ill/Cold and Arctic Air slotted for Defense, but very little additional defense. Recharge is far, far more important. Use of perma-PA (or even close), Deceive, Blind, Flash and even Sleet and various Slow powers in Cold means that you shouldn't have many attacks aimed at you.
Just to give you an idea, here is my planned build for when I finally gather up all the IOs needed:
