I am on with renovating a old farm house.
When i moved into the property the heating was run of a solid fuel boiler, i could never get the place warm, i calculated that there were insuffcient rads in the house, 21K btu and it needed 65K btu.
I have just installed a trianco solid fuel system and the house is heating up nicely.
the walls of the house are at least 2' thick and don't seem that cold to the touch.
My question is should i insulate the walls and if i do what should i use?
I am thinking of using flexible lining and plaster boarding over the top, but i am worried about it not breathing correctly.
could anyone offer any advice or point me in the right direction.
