Thread: Aluminium Membrane for side Walls.

Guys, Do you know if I use asphaltic membrane w/aluminium (the ones that is used in roofs for moisture) in the side walls and a layer of gypsum is better for the TL ?

The order is (Ex. to In.) : 15cm Wall - Membrane - 12.5mm Gypsum layer.

What dou you think ? ? :roll:
PLEASE I ONLY WANT TO KNOW IF I COULD GET A BETTER TL WITH THIS IN THE WALL... I KNOW, AFTER THAT I GOING TO BUILD ANOTHER ROOM WITH GYPSUM IN THE INTERIOR.
JUST TO GIVE THE WALL MORE ISALATION.

You want to experiment - you spend your money and you take your chances -

Possibilities are:

It might make it better

It might make it worse

It might make no change at all........

Your guess is as good as mine which is the case.......

Personally - I always reccomend that everyone sticks with materials and assemblies that are tried and true - known tested rated assemblies........... tis the best place to invest your money.

Good luck,
