I'm in an over 100 year old home in Connecticut. The bathroom was redone in the 60's but its really a mess now. I'm want to tear the walls to the studs and insulate the 2 exterior walls. I asked a guy at Home Depot for some advice and he seemed to know what he was doing but I wanted to check with you good people here.
He said I should use foiled faced insulation with the foil facing inward toward the room and then put plastic sheeting on the walls over the studs before I put up the backer board. Does this sound right? I want to be sure I don't have any moisture or condensation behind the backer board. Also I was thinking of using Hardi backer. Is this a good choice or is there some other product that might work better. Hope these weren't stupid questions. lol. Thanks
