Previously done attic, attic hatch, sealed all draughts we can find, fitted stove.
Looking into the following this year and any advice welcome:
1) Previously made (out of drainage pipe) covers for our downlighters so insualtion could go nearer the downlighter. We NEVER use any of the downlighters so think best step is to cover them completely over with insulation in the attic. So choices: seal over the pipes somehow, buy clay pots or buy purpose built hoods.
2) Have few exterior walls in the house where no plugs/switches etc. Block built with plaster. Would putting insulated plasterboard with mushroom fittings and re-plastering be a good idea and worth the hassle.
3) Have sunroom (that we closed off from the house by glazed/timber unit) with timber clad high pitched ceiling with fleece rolls inside which assuming have sagged. Considering taking down existing ceiling but would fitting a new false ceiling be just as effective and cleaner. Large double glazed windows - would it be worth putting in A rated or triple glazed units (seen a company thats uses the existing frames).
