Shove it in with the VB the correct direction, friction will hold
it just fine..

On one wall I have to install insulation, but unfortunately

I'm
wondering if I can just push the insulation into the wall -
vapor
barrier and all. It should stay put from friction but I

If I understand you correctly you are working from the cold
side so the vapor barrier should be on the other side. Yes you
normally could use just friction fit. As noted the barrier
usually comes off easy or you can slit it if that is not
possible. I would use friction fit to keep the barrier where
it belongs.

Alright, just checking. Another person asked why I wasn't
looking too hard for non-backed insulation and the answer to
that was because I have a bunch of rolls of backed insulation
already.
