March 23, 20224 yr Hello folks I have used an online calculator but thought I would check with a hive mind. I think the thermafleece is slightly better than the quinn therm. What do people think? Or has anyone got any other ideas? It is for a roof. The plan i to then cover it all with wood fibre too. Thanks :)
March 23, 20224 yr For the love of cats I wish people would stop the love affair with PIR, especially in roofs. Cost Fire Ease of fitting, Thermal bypass, Heat protection. Vapour permeability. Overstated K values, Gas migration, Shrinkage poor performance in cold weather. Supporting quantifiably immoral manufacturers. On the other hand the sheep's wool will do fine. 👍

March 23, 20224 yr Author Thank you Iceverge. Thermafleece is recycled plastic, still trying to calculate cost benefit. I had the nasty stuff leftover, it was as easy to fit as thermafleece and have yet to find anything cheaper. Its whether the R values are comparable. Maybe you know another cost effective product which has good insulation? I would be grateful to know. Thanks
