I'm worried I might've messed up my floor insulation. I didn't realize that a vapour barrier is bad. I cut narrow strips of 1/2" XPS and put the strips in between the ribs of the floor. The XPS strips aren't flush with the ribs and there's a gap. I then put double foil facing EPS silverBoard on top, thinking it'd form a radiant barrier, utilizing the gap.
I thought it was a good idea using the foil coated EPS as a moisture barrier but now I'm thinking the gap will draw condensation and trap vapour.
Should I start over or is the risk of mold and rust minimal? Oh, I should say that after removing rust I painted the floor with Tremclad anti-rust paint.
I chose the silveRboard as it's advertized as both a sound dampener and radient barrier, in addition to its insulating qualities.
