Hi all,
New carpets are immanent so I've got the old ones up to do a few jobs. I found an access panel so had a look under the suspended timber ground floor and it seems the CH pipes under there are hardly insulated. They just have a bit of that felt stuff wrapped around them (badly).
It'll be a devil of a job as there's only just enough room for me to crawl about under there, but is it worthwhile putting some proper foam lagging on them to prevent heat loss in the cold space under the house? And if so, would the cheap thin stuff be sufficient or will I really notice enough difference with the correct thick stuff to justify the much higher price?
Thanks,
Andy.
