  • Ding ding ding. That looks absolutely ideal. The flat is insanely dafty, and not very well insulated. I’ll never eradicate all the drafts, so there will always be plenty air circulation I reckon.

    And there’s loads of gaps, pretty much all the walls have skirting with a gap between the bottom and the floor. The drafts are evident enough that you can tell when someone leaves the inside building door open, or any other small change to airflow. Put your hand near any gap and you can feel the cold air rushing in!

    Dropping knowledge as always! Will probably get some draughtex for the bits on the floor tho. Will be a lot cheaper doing the skirting with the gear you posted tho!

    If you are too good at blocking the drafts you may end up with condensation problems if your walls are cold.

  • Fortunately the abundance of gaps in the flat will guarantee that there will always be some airflow because it would be impossible to seal all the gaps and also keep my sanity in tact.
