1. Warm air in the home rises
2. Energy is transferred through the ceiling by conduction
3. Air in the loft is warmed by the top of the ceiling and is trapped by loft insulation
4. Both sides of the ceiling are at the same temperature so no energy is transferred.
5.Without loft insulation, the warm air in the loft can move by convection and heat the roof tiles
6. Energy is transferred to the outside by conduction
