Default Plastic Behind Drywall?

"John" wrote in message
...
Im putting up drywall in my basement. Two of my walls are exterior
walls and my studs are about 6 inches from the wall. Should I put up
plastic as a moisture barrier before putting up the drywall. Im not
installing any type of insulation.
Thanks
John




I don't know where you live, but why not put in some insulation while you're
at it? You have plenty of space, now's the time. I put up a similar wall
in one corner basement room I have, partly to be able to put insulation in
the walls, and it made quite a difference.
