Hello! I am currently in the process of renovating a canopy that will eventually be enclosed with glass. I would like to add a thin layer of insulation to the roof to prevent heat loss on cool evenings. However, I'm uncertain if this is appropriate and what material would be best.

About half of the conservatory is under a balcony supported by a glulam beam (to the left in the picture). If I install an insulated ceiling there, I am worried that moisture from condensation will cause issues. The plan is to install an interior ceiling made of finely sawn boards with a little space between each board to allow air to come in. But if I insulate, I want it to be airtight. Could stone wool boards be suitable here? Or is it a bad idea to insulate there?

The outer part of the roof has a gap where air can enter.
