Question on Vapor Barrier some here have used

[Fidgets Folly]

under their slabs... I read about it in one of the MANY "New Garage Build" threads I've read over the last few months. Problem is, I can't spend the time to re-read all that I have, to find it again, so I ask you fine folks. It was 6mil (blue) this person put down, but they have in many different thicknesses as well and some real nice house wrap this company also sold. (It was a plastics Co if that helps...?)

I forgot to book mark when I was there looking around & now I need to possibly place an order, but can't for the life of me remember the name.

Thanks for any help! (in the mean time, my search continues!)

VaporBlock 6. I think Raven makes it. Its what I used. No vapor problems here. Got some left if you need some extra + tape.

BMWPower... YOU are the MAN!!!

Well I need enough VB to cover 28'X36' slab...? Whatcha Got for me?

Anyone ever use this companys housewrap... it looks pretty awesome from their testing. I've not done any cost comarisons to say Tyvec, but don't know if ya can, it this stuff is as superior as they say it is.

Hey BMW... Did you insulate under your slab? I'm not doing radiant heat or anything fancy like that...(blast heaters) so I was wondering is it worth it?
Not seen many who have under "just a slab"...

Let me check. I had it in the classifieds, but I deleted it. Let me bring it back from the dead. I can't stand throwing stuff away...

I didn't insulate under the slab. Probably should have. Darn cold in the winter.

OK BM... see what ya have, as I'm Def interested. Where in jersey are ya. (I used to live in Woodbridge...)

It's pretty dang chilly up here too... I think I'll spend the few X-tra bucks & insulate...Can't hurt other than the pocket...

OK, I'll check back on here tomorrow night or Sunday... post up what you find & we'll talk.

Thanks again for the Vapor Block-6 Info...

Let me know if you can use this stuff. Ignore the price.

Hey BM... So close! I need 24'X36' and there's a 2'dX12w' "jut out" of the middle bay on my soon to commence new build. So in actuality, I'd need a
26'X36' piece. No matter how I lay your leftovers out, I'll run short & will have to buy a roll anyway.

Thanks for offering & Thanks again for the VB~6 lead. Sorry I can't take off your hands... (We can merge our leftovers when I'm done & maybe we can get some "bites" on selling it)

No worries. I should have just doubled it up and used all I had when I laid mine down. Good luck!
