This is me after working under the house.
I have been installing underfloor insulation-polystyrene strips. The house is built on a slope, and so some of the joists re about 2.5metres high and some about .5metres from the ground, hence the dirt covered clothes.
The insulation is straight forward, but not quite as easy as the video starring the penguins would have you believe.
New Zealand homes are notoriously cold, partly as a result of poor building standards in the past. I really should have done this before. Hopefully, it will make a significant difference, and help make the new “heat pump” more effective.
