I've been following various threads here over the months about insulating lofts, but none of them quite seem to answer my question.
I've already got Rockwool type material laid between the ceiling joists, which gives a nominal four inches, this is now in the process of being boarded over for a combination of storage and a hobby area. However, partly to increase the overall insulation, and partly to reduce the extremes of temperature in the loft, I want to insulate the underside of the roof. My idea is to fasten some form of sheet material to the underside to the roof joists (4x2s), with a flat section at the top (overall I've got about 8ft of headroom in the main area), thus leaving an air gap above it.
Now the question is, what would the panel recommend that I use ?. A Kingspan type material looks good (but there appear to be several grades), as it weighs very little (so little extra weight on the timbers), and the foil finish should reflect some of the light, but are there better alternatives ?
TIA
