Life has been pretty hectic and I haven’t had time to update this site much as things occur so I’m going to dump several posts at one time. About 3 weeks ago I tackled insulation installation on th exterior walls of the bathroom. Not much to say about it except make sure you wear a good nose/mouth mask (which I did), rubber gloves, AND SOMETHING FOR YOU EYES (which I did not). This shit is not only dangerous but irritating. Try to keep the insulation smashed down when you cut it also as you can usually cut most of the thickness with one swipe. Otherwise, you’ll end up sort of chopping at it which creates a lot of death dust. I found a better solution to the masking problem as you’ll see in my next post.
R-13 is suggested for 2×4 studded walls with the moisture resistant paper back. I still think that is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Water resistant paper. Stupid.
