Hi, I have a question about installing insulation between floor joists.

I have the floorboards up in a 3m by 3m first floor room with a suspended
timber floor. While I have the opportunity, what are the recommended
options for installing some insulation?

I have also considered installing underfloor heating, but I suspect that
this will make the project take longer and be quite expensive.

Thanks,
Rem


Is it worth it? Any heat penetrating through the floor from below will
take the chill off that room. It's when the heat escapes to the outside that
you want
to worry! I suppose it may just be worth it if the room is directly over the
living room
and you are at home all day, so keep the living room toasty.

I'd like to hear from someone about a practical advantage of this type of
insulation before I'd consider it myself,

Andy.
