Uninsulated Loft Ceiling
Inadequately insulated Loft Ceiling (Insulation is depth of ceiling joists)
Top up insulation on top of and at right angles to ceiling joints and ceiling insulation
Squashed loft insulation with possessions stored on top of top-up insulation
Squashed loft insulation with possessions stored on loft deck boards on top of top-up insulation
If you remove the possessions from the loft deck boards, the boards continue to squash the loft top-up insulation
A step in the right direction:
- Deep loft joists on top of and at right angles to the ceiling joists; but they form a thermal bridge through the top up insulation
An improvement:
- Shallow loft deck joists in two layers, the first layer is at right angles to the ceiling joists and the second layer is at right angles to the first layer; top up insulation is laid between each layer of loft deck joists at right angles to the ceiling insulation layer below.
- Thermal bridging is reduced to the joist crossings rather than the whole length of the joist in the previous diagram.
