Discovered that the attic access hatch isn’t insulated, which honestly isn’t surprising given when it was built. No ladder system. I’m working on cutting up some foam boards to glue to the backside. Hopefully it will reduce how much is radiated through this barrier.

I use a heat camera to check bearings on equipment. Might have saved the baler one year because the camera showed a piping hot bearing at the top that could have set it on fire.
