Do you have access to your 'attic', can you get us a picture? A fairly easy and cheap way to isolate would be to cover the top of the ceiling with EPS plates. Just put them on the top of the ceiling and cover the entire atticfloor. You can add another layer later. This will isolate your second floor from the hot air in the attic. Right on top of that you can lay the insulationfoam you found, with the aluminium to the top. That way the aluminium radiates heat away from the floor. The first thing I'd do though is get those foam/aluminium rolls and hang them underneath the metal roof with the aluminium facing upwards. How closed is your attic? Is it windy in there during a hurricane? |
