Yurt Insulation for full time living in Uk

[Amy Amelia]

Hiya! I'm a little late in the thread here (I'm a newbie), I live in Wiltshire UK, full time in a yurt. I made 20 ft yurt with my BF 3 years ago, but we separated and I'm now in a temporary 14 ft, but am planning to build my own 18ft over the next couple of months.

Re: Insulation....just a quick thing I have experienced.... for the UK I went for a wool/felt mix which is wonderfully warm and cosy, but it does have a tendency to wick the water through off the canvas above of your canvas tends to hold a lot of water. For our weather I recommend lining in between the insulation and canvas, using Tyvek house wrap. Extra, insulation and good wet weather protection :-D
