The same applies on a concrete ceiling from above as on the basement ceiling from above. Insulation material does not matter, vapor barrier foil is not necessary. For wooden beams and drywall ceilings, a vapor barrier should generally be used on the room side. With diffusion-resistant insulation materials like PIR (whether with or without aluminum does not matter), it can be omitted. The important thing here is airtightness. Drywall without any foil usually is not airtight, so I would recommend an airtight foil on the room side / inside in front of the insulation regardless of the insulation material. For simplicity, then use a vapor retarder.sorry if I'm bothering, but can I omit the vapor barrier / vapor retarder with the aluminum-laminated variant when insulating the upper floor ceiling?
