Hello there
Hope you can help me with this.
In my barn conversion , I want to create a walk-in wardrobe against an outside wall. This wall is 60 cm thick random stone and will then have 150 mm fibre-wool and pb which gives approx U 0,2.
Where I live, I can reckon with a few weeks at -10 C or close.
This wardrobe will then be surrounded internally by 3 walls with an average temperature of approx 12 C ( one is partly external )
If the area-ratio is 2:1 warm-walls to cold, would you expect me to need a radiator within the wardrobe to prevent condensation/mould or not i.e. will the heat-leak from the other rooms be sufficient to prevent this, I can't work it out ?
I intend to put in a an electric cable ( for possible necessary electric rads) but would welcome your views.
Thanks in advance
