Default Re: Yurt Dome Insulation Install and Condensation

Great ideas. We insulated virtually the same way: in between the studs of the snow/wind kit. Instead of the 'wool' we used foam boards cut into triangles (by my very patient brother in law). The heat reclamation unit sounds intriguing although we are off grid with minimal solar...we could upgrade if needed. I was also considering finding someone to build a

dome

out of 6 triangles of double or triple pained glass and somehow attaching the top cover in a way that enables it to vent into the new

dome

. The new dome would also have a permanent vent at the top to allow for year round ventilation. This seems more in line with normal house ventilation where the soffet (sp) vents (equivalent to where top cover is resting against side) feed air to flow up to the peak vents (equivalent to the dome).
