will you be putting additional insulation in the attic space? im thinking I should do that because I live in northern Maine and we have really cold winters. also, thank you so much for making these videos and the timing couldn't be more perfect for me! I just started my tiny hosue two weeks ago!
I'm so glad the videos are helping! Please don't hesitate to ask questions when they come up. I did blow cellulose insulation in the rafter bays and you can see a bit of that in the latest video, although I didn't go into a ton of detail since we already covered blown cellulose in a previous episode. If I was living in northern Maine I would either thicken the sandwich layer of foam insulation under the roof or use wider rafters to make more room in the attic bay for insulation. Or even better, a combination of both. This takes away a little bit of space from the vaulted ceiling but will be well worth the savings and comfort.
