[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 202270, member: 337"] average home air will condense if allowed to get cold whether it condenses in the fixture - or settles into or onto the insulation above it - if there’s transfer of air from inside to outside it’s got to condense don’t modern light fixtures have heat sinks that allow cooling without actual convective air flow through them? I’d be shocked if they don’t. just asking... I don’t know. lots of people get drips AFTER the cold streak ends - when the weeks worth of slow but sure frost that accumulated in the insulation melts when they investigate they find wet sopped insulation and black mold [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] [URL]https://www.homedepot.com/p/BAZZ-Vapor-Shield-for-Recessed-Lighting-Kits-VAP101/203562722?cm_mmc=Shopping%7CTHD%7Cgoogle%7C&mid=sBGHRYYTf%7Cdm_mtid_89037lm25188_pcrid_52448460335_pkw__pmt__product_203562722_slid_&gclid=Cj0KCQiAnOzSBRDGARIsAL-mUB1QTgpZhudQnJYiPI5eO62afgcqrD9lMz9SVI07D8EEwE-rmkntqkQaAt7nEALw_wcB[/URL] [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] check out post #7 here [URL]http://www.diychatroom.com/f19/no-vapor-barrier-87298/#/topics/87298[/URL] [/QUOTE]
