ABSTRACT
This paper aims to verify the procedure for calculated and measured values, the effectiveness of varying insulation thicknesses for selected rooms and assessment of the highest allowable daily internal air temperature increases during summer periods. Residential building lofts are considered suitable, because in addition to solving problems with sub-standard, common roof leaks, sloped roof constructions significantly impact the architecture of the building and complement its overall character.
