The Right Insulation Makes a Difference
The team here at Arco Building Systems is in the steel building industry because we believe these products are the all-around best solution for many businesses. The pros of a steel building heavily outweigh any cons they might have. That being said, a steel building kit will need a few accessories to transform from a standard building to a functional workplace. One of the necessities for a steel building, as with any structure, is insulation. Today, let’s take a look at the most common insulation types for a 100 x 300 steel building, aiming to find a solution that will work best for your company.
Common Insulation Types for Steel Buildings
Vapor Barrier
Condensation is a matter of life most of us deal with on a daily basis, usually on windows or glasses of water, and steel building owners might encounter this on their structure if they don’t equip the building properly. Condensation can drip from the walls and ceiling of a steel building during weather that’s conducive of that. What a vapor barrier does is essentially regulate the temperature of the wall, ensuring that moisture will not build up.
Spray Foam
As an option that’s especially ideal for unconventionally shaped areas, spray foam is a liquid, which will dry, that is sprayed onto the walls of a building, filling every crevice where airflow could possibly occur. This type of insulation works great for an entire building and even the hard-to-reach areas.
Rigid Board
Rigid BoardSometimes referred to as foam board, rigid board is a material that made out of fiberglass and typically polyurethane or polystyrene. It is designed to cover large, flat areas but can also conform to other shapes as well if needed. Rigid board is a popular option because it offers the most insulation possible, creating the best environment for temperature control and energy efficiency.
Loose Fill
Loose fill is the type of insulation that most homeowners would see in their attic. Though this often isn’t a typical solution for steel building owners, it’s an option that is usually considered in large areas or when you would need special treatment to assuredly reach all corners of the of a 100 x 300 steel building.
