Description

Secondary-glazing film is a transparent tape that fixes to windows to create a double-glazing effect.

As for insulating the loft side of hatch, you can simply glue/silicon on a slab of solid foam insulation, Eg. It’s super important to always keep safety in mind when doing any work inside or around your loft space. Also in rooms where there is likely to be a build up of excess moisture good ventilation is needed to take this moist air away. Insulation prevents heat from passing through it, whilst draught excluders prevent cold or warm air from passing around it.Loft hatches are an area where lots of heat can be lost, so make sure that the hatch fits snugly and some draught proof strips have been fitted around the edges. Further, if you have your living room warmer than the rest of the house, draught proofing under the connecting doors will help prevent those convection type draughts as the colder air gets under the door from the adjoining room. The hatch will then press up against the tape when it is closed and create the necessary seal to prevent the draughts from passing through.

It fell on me once but that was due to high wind flow when a builder was breaking through the gable wall.Draught proofing is generally considered to be DIY work — if you can handle a screw driver and a silicone gun you should be fine. Foam draught-excluder strips come in different thicknesses, and it’s important to get the right thickness otherwise either your door won’t close properly, or the draught excluder won’t exclude the draughts. I bought a lamppost which arrived with a couple of bits damaged or missing - we all get things wrong occasionally and I regard the measure of a company as being how well they deal with problems, rather than whether problems arise in the first place.
