      @harshcarpenter Tell me this please, if you haven't being using polypropelyne boards as a second layer of insulation then the mechanical ventilation wouldn't be necessary, correct?
      Or I am wrong?

    • @harshcarpenter
      @harshcarpenter  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If the room is heated, then a vapor barrier and ventilation are required. Warm air is humid. It cannot be allowed into the insulation, and to prevent it from accumulating, there must be ventilation.
      In this project, ventilation will be done later - by the customer. @mladentodorovic5353

    I would like to know what type of products you're using to do the work you're doing I'm fascinated with what you're doing but I don't know what insulation you're using or what vapor barrier are you using this would be helpful❤❤

    • @harshcarpenter
      @harshcarpenter  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      A vapor barrier must be used inside the house. As a rule, this is a thick polyethylene film... sometimes it comes with reinforced threads. A windproof membrane must be used outside the house. I don’t give the names of specific brands. But give your choice to those that are average or above average in cost. I do not recommend using cheap materials.

    • @Tom-Lahaye
      @Tom-Lahaye 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They probably use a wooden cladding which is sturdy enough in itself, unlike the PVC used in the USA. Also rockwool is a much better choice as ot allows the wood to breath, spray foam is used because its fast and cheap, but often leads to rot. In the UK you can't even get a mortgage for a house with spray foam in it.
