Re: [RC] Help with condensation issue in living qrtrs - CTH
Hi Beccy
I am doing my trailer with advice from a guy who does
it professionally.
First is do not use the fibre glass insulation. It goes
moldy even with vapor barrier
Used the styrofoam. I used spray foam insulation in the
small areas. Never spraying into wiring that I may need to get to some
day.
I live in Northern Alberta so insulation is a BIG
deal.
Then use plywood strips screwed into your supports.
about 4 inches by 20"
This is what you can put your paneling onto and shelves
ect.
Oh the floor is done first.
3/4" plywood put down with stainless steel screws
(aluminum trailer) in 8 inch squares. An adhesive was placed under the boards
first.
Spray insulaton was done under the entire trailer 3
inches to insulate the floor and I had the ceiling in the horse part sprayed and
painted white. Keeps the horse area warmer or cooler.
Subject: [RC] Help with condensation
issue in living qrtrs
Can anyone tell me if a vapor barrier between the
insulation and the panelling is the best way to go in order to prevent damage
from condensation? Or, maybe the best and first question should be, "How does
one get rid of the condensation problem?" Thanks, Beccy
