Introduction

This video demonstrates the effectiveness of using styrofoam insulation to lower the temperature inside a room. The speaker measures the temperature in different areas with and without insulation to show the impact.

Key Takeaways

• Using 20mm (2cm) styrofoam insulation boards lowered the room temperature. Thicker boards (30mm or 3cm) would likely yield even better results.
• Temperature readings taken at a distance of approximately 1-1.5 meters from the roof showed a temperature of 41°C without insulation.
• When the styrofoam was placed close to the roof, the temperature was 34-35°C.
• The further the styrofoam insulation is from the roof, the lower the temperature inside the room.
• Styrofoam is an excellent thermal and acoustic insulator, and also helps retain moisture from walls.
