Your quite right SMN I'v posted in the wrong forum sorry!]
Why did you have to go and ruin it, I thought the fellas were doing quite wellWhat's this gotta do with plumbing ?
I do like your reply! Why do'nt Building Regs state what is required rather than u/values with so many combinations?The real answers that you won't like are:Hi allI'am going to install some velux rooflights and a floor in the loft of my bungalow, can anyone advise as to the thickness of kingspan between the rafters which are 50x75mm.
A likely insulation thickness for the roof would be 150mm with a 50mm air gap above the insulation.
The floor will require substantial structural alterations before it can be used as a habitable room. Putting insulation in it is the least of your problems.
Despite what advertisements might imply, shoving a couple of Velux windows in your roof does not make a loft conversion.
