When the floor is insulated underneath, an extra barrier between the floor and the cold basement is added, which keeps the heat from filtering down through the floor.
It can also help block drafts of air that can cause undesirable heat loss.
That means your heating and air conditioning system won’t be straining so hard, which could lead to potential savings on your energy bills.
For timber suspended floors, cut the insulation boards to fit between the floor joists.
Push the boards down until they are flush with the bottom of the floorboards.
For crawl spaces, seal air leaks and floor joists, then add insulation and a vapor barrier.

The amount of best underfloor insulation you need will vary depending on the size of your home and the floor type.
Solid floor insulation costs more and is slower to install than insulation in a suspended timber floor.
