Hello everyone
In our single-family house (built in 1969), I would like to insulate the basement ceiling in the oil tank room. In the living-dining area above with a tiled floor, your feet get cold very quickly in winter. The tank room is closed off with an access window from the heating room. As far as I can tell, the basement ceiling is made of reinforced concrete. If possible, I want to stick the insulation material to the ceiling.
- Which materials are suitable, and how thick should the insulation be?
- Is a vapor barrier needed? Could there be problems with moisture?
- What else should I watch out for?
Thanks in advance for the feedback
