Loft Roof Insulation Panels

Batt insulation packages contain more square feet than rolls.

Loft roof insulation panels.

Batts come in pre cut lengths which makes installation fast and easy especially for framed spaces. These insulation panels also provide excellent noise control. They can then be covered by insulated plasterboard. This means insulating between or below the sloping beams that form the construction and support a sloping roof.

If you already have insulation but it was put in some time ago it is worth checking the. The rafters are joined together by a horizontal ridge board at the top and tied together by ceiling joists at the bottom. Loft insulation is a barrier of material within your roof space. If you want to use your loft as a living space you can insulate your room in the roof by insulating the roof with fixed rigid insulation boards between the roof rafters.

An alternative way to insulate your loft is to fit the insulation between and over the rafters these are the sloping timbers that make up the roof itself. You can use rigid insulation board carefully cut to size or you can have foam insulation sprayed between the rafters. It can either be laid between the joists the horizontal beams along the floor of your attic or the rafters the angled beams that support the roof. Insulating the rafter space will give you a warm loft.

Blown in insulation is installed using blowing machines.
