Couldn't agree more. I'm in the UK and in the process of installing underfloor insulation in a house built around 1890. It is a flooboards-up job involving a windproof one way moisture permeable membrane above the joists, with hygroscopic insulation on top, and then a vapour control barrier on top of that, with all edges of layers taped to the joists where possible, all holes for wires, pipes etc. sealed with tape, and finally membranes brought up to wall behind the skirting boards. It's going to cost around £1k for a room of about 25m2. We have double glazing, the walls aren't particularly cold in winter, and the roof is insulated. I'm convinced most of our cold is coming through the floor and I reckon this job (along with the rest of the house in time, ugh) will make a huge difference. But I'm having to do it myself because there are literally no specialist fitters where I live, and there are no government incentives that I am aware of. Why aren't the government going hell-for-leather for insulation etc.?
