Getting the right mineral wool insulation

Keep it ventilated

When insulating a loft, keep eaves vents clear so the roof space stays ventilated.

Glass or stone wool?

Glass wool rolls are light and economical for lofts. Stone wool slabs are denser and often chosen for acoustics and fire stopping.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Quantities: a worked example

An 8 × 8 m loft (64 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 8 rolls of 100 mm and 14 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator
