I know Tyvek is way more permeable to water vapour than Typar, which are the only two choices available locally, but I'm building a sugar shack, which as its primary function is to dissipate a tremendous amount of water vapour. I don't want the water to condense on the ceiling air barrier, otherwise it may drip back into the syrup.  What's the absolute most vapour-permeable air barrier on the market, including those esoteric European membranes?
