Is this attached with some special glue? and how tight does it have to be to
the wall. My wall is a block wall, do i have to put caulk or something into
all the joints of the block?
Do the overlap joints on the xps need a caulk too?
My one basement wall is 90% above grade, and it is cold down here in the
basement 8-p. 15° C today and it is 8°C outside
Should I use 1" or 2" xps on walls? I will be using 1 " on floor. Location
is southern ontario.
thanks

A model of Dell computer. I believe he's referring to EPS - extruded
polystyrene.

No XPS, expanded polystyrene.
