I’m confused about whether or not to make the interior drywall airtight, thus acting as an interior air barrier. Here’s our current setup:
Hardie
Benjamin Obdyke Slicker MAX rainscreen
Tyvek commerical wrap
OSB, taped seams
2×4 stud wall
rockwool insulation
drywall
I’m in the N GA area, so we have hot & humid summers and can have relatively cold winters. I’m confused about whether or not making the drywall airtight is a good idea in my CZ. We have the taped OSB seams, so we have an exterior air barrier. Do we also need one indoors?
