Discovered that the attic access hatch isn’t insulated, which honestly isn’t surprising given when it was built. No ladder system. I’m working on cutting up some foam boards to glue to the backside. Hopefully it will reduce how much is radiated through this barrier.

    Lol. I dealt with this last year. Panes of glass just set in the walls. When we ripped it out, the studs and floorboards were rotten through. Thankfully the home inspector warned us to not use that room AT All until we fixed it or tore it down.

    We’ve been here a year and a half now, and we’re just about through all the “needs” and into the “wants”.
