    As a contractor/ Architect technician you should do sone research because you provide some false/ incorrect information about vapor barriers. One thing you need to know, it’s better to not have a vapor barrier than have one in the wrong place : Mold Vapor barriers are use under a concrete slab , crawl space floor. Otherwise you need a vapor retarders. Avoid plastic vapor (6mil) barrier inside wall/ celling assembly or roof.

    This just doesnt make sense to me!, the plastic barrier should go against the wall first otherwise the insulation risks getting damp from any penetratiing damp (as I've found out) my insulation was wet and going mouldy. Ive since stapled the plastic membrane to the ceiling baton and left it hanging. I then made a wooden frame to fit the wall, screwed it to the ceiling baton, then the floor batton, it's very sturdy. Using this method Ive not compromised the vapour barrier, I then inserted my insulation which will not get damp. I then overlayed the insulation with a breathable membrane (the stuff usually used before tiling a roof)I then plasterboarded the walls. My out building is now insulated/sound proofed and protected against penetrating damp onto my insulation fill.

    If you use AC in the summer, any moisture in the wall cavity will condense on the interior side of that plastic. You really should be using something like intello or Siga Majrex with their tapes. That allows the wall to dry to the inside without allowing air to move in and out of the assembly.

    • @rsmith02
      @rsmith02 4 місяці тому

      Totally agree, I used Intello Plus here as it lets humidity pass (diffusion) while blocking air.

      I had an in-depth conversation with the person who wrote the code plastic is not req at all they added it to the code as a reference of its permeability. Sheetrock prime n paint fall well within the perm req for any house. Plastic traps moisture

    Great video! For a concrete basement bathroom, the bottom half of the wall height is below grad. Someone told me to put a plastic barrie on the concrete wall and then insulation and plastic barrier on top of insulation. There are pipes and drain pipes on that wall. Can this method cause issues or it’s a right thing to do? Thank you.

    Hi Guys! I'm a newbie DIY Wall Student in L.A. about to fix a 24 inch square section in my ceiling (and a big rectangular section of drip stained wall) from a bad leak that was on our apartment rooftop. The outside roof leak is almost repaired (for the 5th time), and I'm getting a bunch of ideas from the comments below with the plastic "Vapor Barrier" application. After noticing each Comment below had a *_major_*_ _*_caution_* for using sealing the wall with plastic, I'm getting a *ZEN* Idea to simply overly my plastic in horizontal rows that overlap over each other. This "vented attempt" would *theoretically* stop dripping (or running water), from another failed rooftop fix, from soaking into my wall (especially my rectangle wall repair).

    • @rsmith02
      @rsmith02 4 місяці тому

      Just use an air barrier that lets vapor pass like Intello Plus and you won't have an issue. Venting is not a solution, you want an air barrier. Carefully done painted drywall could serve that function as well...
