What is Underfloor Insulation?
Underfloor insulation generally refers to insulation to underneath the ground floor of a home. This is not to be confused with under soffit, under slab or between floors insulation.
It prevents cooling and heating from escaping through the floors. Even a sealed floor will allow the cold and heat to pass through because of the materials thermal transfer. The bigger the temperature difference between inside and outside, the more you’ll notice that you need underfloor insulation.
How to Choose the Best Underfloor Insulation
The right under floor insulation depends on your floor type, climate, and personal needs.
| Insulation Type | Product Example | Best For | Key Features |

| Glasswool Batts | Pink Batts Floor Insulation Batts | Excellent thermal insulation | Energy efficiency, soundproofing, moisture resistance |
| Polyester Batts | Greenstuff Polyester Underfloor Insulation, Bradford™ Polymax Acoustic Insulation Batts | Safe, thermal & acoustic insulation | Good thermal & soundproofing, high moisture resistance |
| Polyester Rolls | Polyester Solutions Underfloor Insulation Roll | DIY-friendly, flexible installation | Good thermal & acoustic properties, high moisture resistance |

Climate Considerations
Cool-Temperate Climate (Melbourne):
- Cold winters and mild summers mean higher R-values (R2.5 – R3.5) are ideal to retain warmth efficiently.
- Glass wool batts or polyester rolls provide excellent thermal insulation
Warm-Humid Climate (Brisbane & Gold Coast):
- Hot, humid summers and mild winters require breathable insulation that allows airflow while preventing moisture buildup.
- Polyester insulation rolls are a great choice as they are moisture-resistant and mold-resistant.
- Reflective foil insulation can be used to reduce heat buildup in summer while maintaining comfortable temperatures year-round.
