Default Insulating a yurt roof
We're in upstate NY and thinking about adding extra

insulation

to our ceiling. any thoughts on this? Will just the roof

insulation

keep us significantly warmer anyway?

We are thinking we'd stuff in-between the rafters with fiberglass, buy roof insulation from Colorado Yurt Co to fit our 27' size and pin this to the rafters with wooden battens to hold the insulation in. But the insulation is $1300 from CO Yurt Co. so also looking for other options to keep insulation in place.

Other ideas?
