I’m building a new home in Northern Wisconsin. I have insulated the ceiling with kraft faced batts. The majority of the builders in this area also apply a plastic vapor barrier over the kraft facing. The insulation manufacturer doesn’t recommend it. Has any one any experience or problems doing this?
Thanks for your comments, Roger

You just answered your own question. Follow the manufacturer's recommendation when installing products of any kind. Too many people in our field try to skirt manufacturer's recommended installation procedures and wind up making expensive mistakes.
Just a thought...
