A “warm roof” is when the insulation is placed directly under the roof tiles and the loft is usually the same temperature as the rest of the house. These compounds are designed to enhance the durability, strength, and longevity of paved areas, ensuring they can withstand heavy traffic, harsh weather conditions,.

At the time of discovering this problem, we were in the grips of the Troll of Trondheim think sub-zero temperatures, snow and ice, which probably exacerbated the issue by increasing the temperature variation between the loft and the rest of the house. I read majority of comments, applied all good advices shared by others - fitted them rather low, and not exactly opposite to avoid creating air tunnels (1,3,5,7,9 slots on one side and 2,4,6,8,10 on other roof side).

It would be perfect for Sylvanian Families or 'Borrowers' (showing my age with those two references. Only to find that they had been installed into the PVC, but the soffit board behind it hadn’t been drilled through. They are helpful in properties with poor ventilation by avoiding the increase of dampness and mould growth.
