Concrete Block Wall Insulation


Recommended Posts

I'm framing my basement and will install drywall around the concrete block perimeter walls. I am planning to use a moisture barrier, followed by the studs (treated bottom plate), with rolled insulation in between the studs, and then drywall. What do most people use for a moisture barrier - brand/material?

On my permit, it says to use a moisture barrier up to the outside grade, which is about a foot below my basement ceiling. Can I assume that there are no problems with running the moisture barrier, insulation, and walls all the way up to my basement ceiling (i.e. above outside grade)?
