Faced or Un-faced Batt Insulation?

Faced batt insulation is manufactured with a paper facing which serves as a moisture barrier; it generally has tabs used to be stapled and hold the insulation in place.

Un-faced batt insulation does not have the paper facing and is used where no moisture barrier is needed. Un-faced batt insulation is typically used in exterior walls and attic spaces.
