[AT] Shop bathroom question

[Gene Waugh Elgin, Illinois USA]

Being an ex plumber, I would suggest your latter thought---use the left 
over insulation to provide additional insulation for the plumbing---AND, 
as you say, you don't want to put anything between the plumbing and heat 
sources.  With overhead pipes especially, I would probably just drape it 
directly over the pipes to maximize the effect.

Jealous of your shop!!!

Would it be a good or bad idea to add this between the kraft paper and sheet rock in the bathroom?  I'm going to have a drop ceiling so I can put the plumbing up there, so I could also put it against the kraft paper up there as well, but it needs to be ABOVE the pipes, don't want to isolate them from the heat source.
