Hello All,
Please, I need your advise, I live in Maryland. I'm renovating my basement and it has a soffit on the outside wall. Now am so confused on how to install the vapor barrier correctly without causing any issues of mold down the road. Can someone help look the pictures and suggest how to proper do this. I could stop the vapor barrier right by the soffit but the rest of the upper will be expose without vapor barrier. I don't know if am overthinking this.
some are saying I do not need vapor barrier as the soffit is sharing space with the ceiling and wall. Ideally, the soffit is suppose to share with either the wall or ceiling and not both to qualify for vapor barrier. What is your intake please.
