The kinds of roof insulation readily available rely on the kind of roof covering that it will certainly be utilized with. With a pitched roofing system, either warm or chilly loft insulation can be suitable. Cold loft space insulation is the least expensive option, merely including putting insulation over and over wooden joists. Nonetheless, as this only protects against warm escaping the living area of the home, it isn't ideal for those wanting to concealed the loft right into a living room. Warm loft insulation is positioned straight under the roofing, as well as for this reason will maintain the loft room at a constant temperature over the course of the year. Because of this, it is perfect if the loft space is utilized as a home. Cozy loft space insulation can be found in various forms, be it glass-wool or polystyrene. Spray foams can also be used, yet sometimes may disagree.

 

Types of loft space insulation

It's typically the most affordable alternative and excellent all-purpose insulation, particularly for between joists. It's the simplest kind to fit but isn't appropriate for the roofing.

 

Loose-fill Insulation

This kind of insulation consists of a loose, lightweight, material, such as cork granules, cellulose fiber, mineral woollen and even recycled paper. It can be used to top up existing insulation or on its own. The primary disadvantage is it isn't extremely safe and can be truly untidy!

 

Sheet Insulation

Company boards of either synthetic or natural materials, this is the most effective option for insulating the bottom of your roof covering. The boards provide highly effective insulation for your loft room and also can also be enhanced over. The disadvantage is that sheet insulation has a tendency to be one of the most expensive type.

 

Blown-fibre Insulation

Loose products of various kinds blown in between joists, this is excellent for hard-to-get-at locations but does not offer a complete option, specifically in a draughty loft space. It's additionally pricey and needs to be installed by a professional.

FAQs

Will insulation save me money on my energy bills?

This depends on the amount of insulation already present in your property. However, adding insulation has been proven to improve the energy efficiency of your home and decrease your heating bills, this is more obvious in older properties or where single glazing is still in situ.

does loft insulation cause condensation?

The short and simple answer to this question is yes, loft insulation does cause condensation. Over the years, problems with condensation in loft spaces have become increasingly common. While this may not be harmful in anyway, when the condensation becomes excessive it can lead to more serious issues taking root in your loft like wet rot, dry rot as well as black spot mould. Generally, the best thing to do if you’re concerned about the condensation in your loft space and that it may rapidly become a bigger problem is to get in touch with a damp specialist as soon as possible.

 

Even though insulating your loft space comes with a wide array of benefits like making the top floor rooms warmer, it’s however comes at the cost of making your loft or room space cooler. Condensation in lofts take place primarily due to the humid air making its way through insulation or other gaps into the loft space and touching a cooler surface which in turn results in beads of moisture on the timbers, lintels as well as the underside of the roof. This is why its always a great idea make use of thermal insulation with a vapour barrier that’s installed on the warmer side of the insulating material.

 

Condensation in loft is caused by excess moisture in the air and lack of adequate air ventilation. Here are some top reasons that gives rise to this in the loft:

  • Extra insulation has been installed in the loft leading to a restriction on the natural air circulation in the property.
  • When the storage boxes or other items that has been stockpiled in the loft blocks the roof vents.
  • The release of steam and moist air into the loft space by hot water tanks.
How long does it take to install insulation?

How long it takes to install insulation will depend on the size of your property. In general, loft and cavity wall insulation can be installed in a day or two. External wall insulation will usually take longer to install. The rep or installer will be able to advise you when quoting for the job how long this will be.

Which type of insulation is best?

The best type of insulation for your property will depend on the type of walls and any insulation that’s already present. It’s usually a good idea to have some form of wall insulation as well as loft insulation, as this helps to prevent heat loss in both areas.
