Why Is My Upstairs Ceiling Hot to the Touch?

If you can feel heat radiating from the ceiling, you have a serious attic insulation and ventilation problem.

What's Happening

A 150°F attic with R-19 fiberglass sends radiant heat straight through drywall. Air leaks make it worse.

The Fix

Air seal + R-49 blown-in, or spray foam the roof deck to cut the source.
