Hello all,
I’m currently converting a brick stable attached to my house into a guestroom with ensuite.
100mm insulation under the osb floor.
75mm insulation on the walls, over boarded with 25mm insulated plasterboard.
Wool insulation in the vaulted roof, and then probably 25mm Insulated plasterboard over that.
Basically I’m trying to turn this stable into an airtight cocoon.
I am reasonably confident this room will be pretty well insulated but, what would be the best way to heat it?
I was thinking of electric underfloor heating throughout, as it would only need to be turned on when a guest comes to stay. By the way, I imagine it’ll only get used once a month for a couple of nights.
A wet underfloor heating system isn’t an option.
A2A heat pump isn’t something I really want either, mainly due to aesthetics of where the pump would be placed.
I think the bathroom will be tiled and laminate or engineered wood for the main floor. Bathroom is about 4 m² and bedroom is 22 m².
Any advice from anyone please ?
Thanks
