jtpfarm - 1/23/2017 12:37 We are planning also. 40x60 house

 with 40x60 walkout basement. 3" of Spray basement and main level

will cost $10k. Absolutely no way I would ever build anything without spray again. On a side note I plan to use a mini split a/c system. They have evaporators that can be put above the ceiling and still allow for different temps in different rooms.

 

Seems like the more I read; the more I see people wanting basement insulation and moisture control, for a basement, on the exterior of those concrete or block walls.

They want the concrete walls or blocks, to be kept warm, and dry and a more constant temp.

 Warm = dry  ////// Cold = wet  {that seem to be the theme, of what I've been reading and/or some videos} Wet = mold possibilities

 

Maybe look into that option, for your plans on your new construction.



I am planning on a waterproof coating on the basement walls. And Styrofoam under the slab. If it wasn't a walkout basement is would use ICFs.
