Hello,
we have an extension on our house that is to be converted into a living space (kitchen). Until now, the roof was constructed with a simple board structure and roofing felt (double layer). Now we have had exterior insulation installed on the roof including everything that belongs to it (Image 1).
We are now wondering how we have to/can seal everything from the inside so that we do not get mold problems. Until now, this was not a heated room and the roof itself was well ventilated – on the outside, the unplastered part + the wood (see Image 1) was only clad with wooden boards. We would like to suspend the ceiling again from the continuous lower beam (green) inside (Image 2). Now we still have to make the roof structure airtight. At the moment, you can still look outside through the front side between the roof beams (Image 3).
Does anyone have advice for us on how to best build up the ceiling from the inside including sealing? (Keyword vapor barrier)?



We are open to all ideas. Thanks!
