Insulating a yurt roof

[Ouryurtlife]

We just have the reflective insulation ordered through

pacific yurts

in both the ceiling and walls, but what we noticed made a huge difference in keeping our yurt warm was adding our insulation under the yurt. We got ahold of thick foam-like pads from our local mill and stapled them up underneath. It's what they use in their shipping crates to protect the plywood sheets, so it's dense and a couple inches thick, and came in fairly large sheets. It is currently 8 degrees outside and 74 degrees in our yurt
