 Finishing the interior - Pole Barn

Closed cell foam.
Yes, it is twice as much. But a good contractor or heating supply house should be able to calculate the payback.
At todays fuel prices it won't take long or use
so much in the future when it really goes up.
Air travels through fiberglass and the foam will give you a thermal barrier. They really are apples and oranges.

 Finishing the interior - Pole Barn

A 6 mil poly is usually stapled over the wall insulation.
Here in Maine the practice is to not poly the ceilings as to let the moisture out.
You may want to look into any potential moisture issues
you might create by putting fiberglass against the metal wall if that is what you are doing? It probaly should not touch?
I have found here in Maine I can hire it done(fiberglass)
for about the same price I can buy it for. Needless to say I let them do it. Worth checking on? It should also give you awarranty of some type?Good luck
