December 13, 20187 yr comment_169555 I never use FG insulation in a basement... moisture and and mold may become a serious issue later... VOE Put up a closed cell (extruded) polystyrene.. https://www.homeconstructionimprovement.com/basement-wall-insulation-detail/ frame the wall and insulate if you wish.. do it Mooney wall style...
