Insulation starts with where heat escapes
An insulation measure works well only when construction, existing layers, moisture and ventilation are considered together.
Approach
Work from the building basics
Map floor, walls, roof and glazing separately. Then choose an approach that fits the existing construction and planned work.
Check these first
- Existing layers and condition of each element
- Moisture, thermal bridges and draughts
- Ventilation after making the home more airtight
- Connections to frames and systems
