This is going to be harder than I thought...

Last winter, I cut a ~4”x4” inspection hole in the drywall that makes up the ceiling for the closet in the addition with the inaccessible attic. I wanted to look for wires or anything like that. I turns out that there’s plywood decking on the other side of the roof joists. It’s not nailed down or anything, and when I push it up as far as I can (only a few inches) there appears to be radiant barrier on it as well. So no cabling in the family room for now. D’oh.
