Hello experts!
I need to insulate a shed that was just delivered. To make a very long story short, our house boiler is going to be installed in this shed. The HVAC tech is already signed onto and scheduled for this plan.
The shed is pretty basic, 8x8 with a metal roof. I was thinking I would use the rolls that fit between studs like in my garage, but the shed construction is not quite the 16 inch-on-center studs I had imagined.
Attached are some photos inside the shed of both the walls and the underside of the roof. I have moderate experience at random home DIY jobs but have never done any insulating. There are many options at the home improvement store and I'm not sure what I should buy.
Appreciate any pointers to what sort of insulation would be both best and easiest to install in this shed. As I said, the shed will house a boiler and nothing much else. This is located in upstate NY so fairly cold winters. The goal is just to insulate well enough so that the boiler runs happy and efficiently.
thanks!
