> Cat Litter? Vapor Retarders on Wrong Side.... by homebild on 07/24/2008

Been researching myself to death about finishing basements regarding insulation, WV paper, drywall.

~ I did not install any water vapor sheeting.
~ My wall is 5 inches away from the cinder block exterior wall.
~ I got cat litter on the ground between the 2x4 plate and cinder block wall.
~ I installed the insulation paper facing the basement on most of the walls.
~ No insulation on the interior wall.
~ I got the paper facing the cinder block wall on the one side of the basement where the 2x4's are flush with the exterior wall.
~ I got the insulation on the bathroom wall (not inside the bath) paper facing inside basement.
~ I will be installing mold protected green facing inside the basement on walls and ceilings. EXCEPT
~ I will have fire code drywall on the interior wall.

Now I'll close my ears. lol Thoughts?
