Question about vapor barrier
Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2018 1:07 pm
Hi, I had a quick question. I just started setting up my vapor barrier. For the most part everything is dry now especially near the center. However, I did notice one problem. On the back side of my home I am seeing small pools of maybe 4x4" of water pooling on the vapor barrier. Here is currently the situation.
1. I am only about 50% done. Half of the underside is done.
2. I'm only seeing water pool on the vapor barrier on the back side of the home. The front side is dry.
3. The vapor barrier is laid down so that it runs up the skirting about 10 inches or so. It is not taped to the skirting.
4. We've had bit of rain around here.
5. The skirting is getting frost on it when it gets really cold.
6. The bottom blanket does not appear to be sweating.
7. The ground under the vapor barrier is moist.
Any idea as to what could cause this water to be pooling?
