We're in our sixth month in a new house in Cumbria, having moved here from warmer climes down south. The house is a 1970-built bungalow with solid concrete floors and cavity walls. The heating system doesn't keep the house warn enough, so I am having double glazing and cavity wall insulation fitted in the new year - the loft space is already 200mm insulated. The double glazing is most important here as the design of the house has 2.5x1.5 metre windows - to show off the views. However....
The Sitting Room is 4x5.5m with a 2.5m ceiling - a big space. One
5.5m wall and half of another are glass (soon to be double glazed 28mm) making this a difficult area to heat. There is easily 85mm of available depth from the lowest cill to the current floor.I'm thinking of putting in an insulation layer with PEX pipe and a screen to take up the available depth and provide Underfloor Heating. Does this sound feasible? Any ideas on cost or recommended suppliers?
