Welwyn

Welwyn (population 8,425) is a village and also civil parish in Hertfordshire, England. The parish additionally consists of the towns of Digswell and Oaklands. It is often called Old Welwyn to distinguish it from the much newer negotiation of Welwyn Garden City, about a mile to the south, though some homeowners dislike the idea of inability or irrelevance that has a tendency to be suggested by the moniker "Old" and like Welwyn Village. When stating where they live, locals will often be asked, 'Welwyn or Welwyn Garden City?', as the latter's title is often reduced to merely Welwyn. To prevent confusion, there were plans to alter Welwyn's name to 'Welwyn Minster' in 1990 however this met with regional resistance as well as the idea was abandoned. The name is stemmed from Old English welig definition "willow", referring to the trees that snuggle on the banks of the River Mimram as it flows through the town. The name itself is a development from weligun, the dative type of words, therefore is more precisely converted as "at the willows", unlike close-by Willian which is likely to imply just "the willows". Through having its name originated from welig as opposed to sealh (the extra typically cited Old English word for willow), Welwyn is possibly cognate with Heligan in Cornwall whose name is derived from helygen, the Cornish word for willow that shares an origin with welig. The neighboring modern-day village of Digswell (around Welwyn North train station) was initially called 'High Welwyn' when very first developed at the start of the 20th century.

In truth, there’s no way to say exactly which type of insulation is the best as all types usually have a different purpose as well as usage. The insulation you choose for your home’s loft is be based largely on the how you’re going to make use of the space as well as any unique challenges you might face given the shape of your home’s loft. Below are some types of insulation to give you a better idea:

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.
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.
