heat rises in convection, but there is also radiation to consider, and that cares not for gravity, and will radiate heat in all directions. (most UK grills are heating from above after all), so you may find limited success with the loft hatch, if the air in the loft is much hotter than the air in the house. |

This is the content I come here for. I’ve stuck one of those doggie cooling pads on the hatch and thrown a thick blanket over the top. See if that works a bit better than nowt. |

Yeah, we opened our loft hatch yesterday and immediately it started pouring much hotter air into the house. We closed that shit back up again quick. |

Knackered today, awful nights sleep… too hot (too noisy with window open) Mrs Z wakes up saying there’s something crawling on her, assumed it was a dream but no, had to remove a zebra spider from the bed. Ended up kipping on sofa downstairs at 2.30? as it was much cooler. |
