Default Re: Insulation worries

Another idea for 'portable' yurt insulation would be to have flexible 4' wide insulfoam wall panels trapped between two seperate inner and outer covers. Insulfoam panels could hang off the wall lattice crosses, just outside the inner wall liner. Since they are not permanently attached to eachother, they would maybe be four feet wide. Stitch loops along all four sides, and secure with paracord or whatever.

Dealing with a conic shaped roof is a trip. My first thought is pie shaped panels maybe two or three rafter bays wide. Stitch loops on the edges and join with paracord. Or perhaps velcro strips. Fastening/unfastening would have to be done from inside, off a ladder.

Just an idea. Making all that would be a lot of work. But as I found out this past winter, yurt insulation is a BIG deal.
