Do I need a product like Hydrogap between the basement wall and the foam board insulation?

user-6323668 | Posted in Energy Efficiency and Durability on

Mystic CT NZE house. I am applying a foil faced polyiso board (2.5″) on concrete basement walls. Do I need a product like Obdyke Hydrogap between the basement wall and the foam board insulation?
