Cold wall

    Hi all,

    My desk at home faces an exterior wall.

    Outside there is a side passage.

    The wall faces south

    I've noticed now as the temperature drops that there is a breeze/draught/cold air coming at my keyboard.

    Adding cozyboard is not an option

    There is not much of a gap at the bottom of the skirting.

    Is there anything I can do to help improve this/keep my hands from freezing when working

    If the breeze is coming from around the skirting and you don't want to add any insulation, you can just caulk up the gaps to stop the breeze. To test it, just tape up the gaps with some painters tape and confirm the improvement before you bother with caulk.
