Onoff Posted October 12 Posted October 12 How best do I insulate above this boiler hatch. There's 270mm (100+170) of roll stuff in the main roof then 250m of stacked Rockwool batts above the boiler...except for above the hatch.
Conor Posted October 12 Posted October 12 I filled a bin bag with wool and wedged it into the hatch space. Pull it out when you need access.

Conor Posted October 12 Posted October 12 Yeah, but how much material is it? 20g? it's not going to be in contact with anything hot either?
Nickfromwales Posted October 12 Posted October 12 Make an insulated secondary panel, which you lift up into the attic, as putting anything on that hatch will prevent access. Use PIR wrapped in gaffa tape for the secondary panel.
