And I know how to SNIP


I am putting insulation in a bedroom wall in my home,i was told i also
have to install a vapor barrier. I have 3 mil plastic but i don't know if
thats enough. My home was built in 1892 and it is balloon frame
construction. and there is no insulation in walls. We live in the midwest
just outside Chicago,and had much experience with severe winters.

I just got a sample of a new vapor barrier material that has some plastic
squiggles on it to allow the moisture that inevitability gets behind the
siding
to drain. I can't remember the name.
