Proper Vapor Barrier Installation MethodsĪ critical feature of a vapor barrier is correct installation. The liner is custom-cut for each wall minimizing bulging and dimpling of metal wall panels. Further, the Energy-Saver liner is installed on the interior plane of the walls, concealing the secondary structural steel and further limiting its exposure to indoor air-conditioning and heating. The Energy-Saver walls are installed completely indoors, away from weather constraints and issues. When the Energy-Saver liner is installed, it is fully OSHA compliant for fall protection anywhere on your roof. This seamless, tear-resistant fabric liner is supported by a grid pattern which creates a space for uncompressed insulation. The Energy-Saver fabric liner uses a durable, vapor retardant to produce enough space for the insulation thickness which will have the appropriate permeability for air circulation. Additionally, a vapor barrier aids in limiting odors, reducing molds and other allergens, as well as eliminating insect infestations.Ī vapor barrier is evaluated by how much moisture can pass through the material. It resists rust, corrosion, dust or other moisture-related damages to the building itself. This vapor-barrier system keeps moisture from reaching the metal surface of the building. Energy-Saver Insulation SystemsĮnergy-Saver systems are a superior application of insulation for metal buildings. Modern technology has improved the effectiveness of metal building vapor barriers, making them a highly sought after feature. However, metal buildings allow for a few sufficient solutions. Moisture, specifically, make their way in creating more problems. Protecting this valuable investment is also essential to prolonging the life for a comfortable and secure building environment.Ī common issue to any building, regardless of building material is sealing the building from unwanted intrusions. Metal buildings are ever popular due to their cost-effectiveness, durability and longevity.
