Have decided to insulate walls of 1958 brick house in Ontario, Canada- which has little to no insulation in the walls.
Having difficulty determining the layers I must include to properly insulate and finish each of the rooms.
The exterior of the house is brick, followed inside by a black tar paper.
I have roughly 2 inches of space to deal with/use.
I am planning to pull current plaster walls down.
Do I consider the tar paper a water barrier or do I need to add?
Not sure of the layers I should be ensuring.
Thanks for reply
