The sorts of roofing insulation available depend on the sort of roof covering that it will certainly be used with. With a pitched roofing, either warm or cold loft space insulation can be appropriate. Cold loft space insulation is the cheapest choice, simply entailing positioning insulation over and also over wood joists. However, as this only stops heat escaping the living area of the home, it isn't ideal for those aiming to covert the loft space right into a living area. Warm loft insulation is put directly under the roofing system, as well as thus will maintain the loft room at a continuous temperature level over the training course of the year. As such, it is perfect if the loft is made use of as a home. Warm loft space insulation comes in different forms, be it glass-wool or polystyrene. Spray foams can likewise be made use of, however sometimes might disagree.

 

Types of loft space insulation

It's usually the cheapest choice as well as great all-purpose insulation, particularly for in between joists. It's the simplest type to fit but isn't suitable for the roofing system.

 

Loose-fill Insulation

This kind of insulation contains a loosened, lightweight, product, such as cork granules, cellulose fibre, mineral wool or perhaps recycled paper. It can be made use of to top up existing insulation or on its own. The primary drawback is it isn't really safe and secure as well as can be truly messy!

 

Sheet Insulation

Firm boards of either artificial or all-natural products, this is the best service for insulating the underside of your roofing. The boards supply very efficient insulation for your loft room as well as can also be embellished over. The disadvantage is that sheet insulation tends to be one of the most pricey type.

FAQs

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 does loft insulation work?

A lot of an uninsulated property’s heat is lost through the roof and that’s even more alarming, when you realize this figure is up to a quarter of the total heat of the house. Hence, the tremendous importance of preventing this heat loss through loft insulation which will go a long way to help you against spending unnecessary thousands of pounds on heating bill as well as energy loss.

 

Loft insulation is an effective method to achieve the desired result, however the question is, how exactly does it work? Well, it’s time to find out!

 

Using either a fireplace or central heating to heat up your home, a large quantity of that heat would be lost through the roof of your home. Generally, heat rises and when it does, there’s simply no way to prevent it - it’s just science. Escaping by both the conduction and convection methods via your roof, the heat escaping through your ceiling, into the loft space and out into the open air outside can only be significantly reduced by laying loft insulation.

 

Generally, the added layer of insulation works by trapping the heat inside the room below the loft so as to enable the air within your house to stay warmer for longer. What’s more? The layer of insulation also keeps cold air from the outside from entering your home. As a result, you don’t have to heat your home as much in order to achieve the same temperature for each individual room. Over time, just by doing this you can potentially save hundreds pounds. Getting it installed in your home may actually seem a bit expensive at first, but it’s something that’ll eventually pay off.

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.

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.
