Add insulation to joists over plinth foundation
Hi!
I'm planning to add extra insulation to my floor, which is over an open pillar foundation. I find the floor gets cold in the autumn/winter. I crawled underneath to check and saw that there are some gaps here and there in the subfloor, which lets the wind blow into the joists. The question is whether a wind barrier is needed to protect against the wind, or if it's enough to just carefully add extra insulation?
