I am currently insulating the floor of my house from underneath, a well ventelated cellar.
I have used normal loft insulation (fibreglass 170MM thick) between the joists and covered this with old tonge & groved wood panelling.
This is not completely airtight as there are some gaps here and there where pipes and cables emerge. Will this cause any dampness or condensation problems?
