Finally making a dent in project "please make the house warm". Our upstairs rooms are all rooms in roof, I've spent the past few months installing 100mm PIR in studs then topped with 50mm PIR and fully sealed. I've done one side of the house while also internally insulating the sloping ceilings with 62.5mm insulated plasterboard and 50mm hemp in between rafters above the ceilings (which allows for 100mm airflow).
Has been hovering around 0 degrees the last few days and its definitely taking the edge off, but the heating system is fucked so we're not really able to get the temp up to comfortable.
Counting down to Jan 20th when the ASHP gets installed. And counting down the months to when I never go into the eaves again.
