this insulation lacks a vapor retarder (paper or plastic facing). Unfaced insulation is great for new construction, remodels, walls, floors, ceilings, basements, attics and crawlspaces. It’s best used for interior wall applications that do not face the outside and also in rooms that don’t need moisture control, like living rooms, dining rooms and studies. It should fit snugly into the space but shouldn’t be compressed. One particular note: insulation should always be cut to fit with a utility knife and never folded over for the best performance.
this insulation includes a paper vapor retarder, which helps prevent mold and mildew. insulation should be installed in exterior walls, exterior basement walls, and attic ceilings by pressing the product into the wall cavity with the paper side facing outward, towards the installer. The insulation should be snug in the cavity, but not compressed. If the product needs additional support, consider using a staple gun to hold the insulation in place
