[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by mikebonellisr ...Do you have to replace all the wallboard in order to insulate,or are you going to blow insulation in? [/quote] Probably blow it in - if I end up doing the walls. A housebuilder friend of mine told me that most of the heat loss occurs vertically, i.e. thru the roof. So that is the first place I will put the insulation. That should be easy - it's already covered with a ceiling, and a pull-out staircase into the attic. I'll simply climb up and lay the stuff down. [quote]QUOTE: ...You may want to consider a vented,wall mounted ,propane heater.they are about the size,and look a little like a radiator cover... [/quote] I'm leaning in that direction. I'm not sure my heating system has the BTUs to support the additional volume. And the 'permit' business on top of that...no thanx!
