| Insulation |
Add a approx. R-6 per inch of insulation to your building. The
highest insulating rate of any foam available. |
| Energy Efficient |
The R value of the foam and the reflectivity of the coatings
work together as a system to give huge energy savings. Most
buildings in our region will yield a payback due to energy savings in
about 5 to 7 years. |
| Condensation |
Many metal buildings were built with no insulation. When the
outside temperature drops and cools the roof deck to a temperature which
is less then the dew point temperature of the air inside the building the
moisture condenses out on the bottom of the roof deck and the walls.
Spraying foam on the outside will stop the condensation from occurring the
same as back fitting insulation under the roof only it is much less
expensive and has the advantage of making the roof leak tight and air
tight at the same
time. |
| Strength |
Metal decks which are weakened due to degradation or
crimping are made strong again by adding the foam . Since foam is
fully adhered when applied, it increases the section modulus of the roof
decking making it stronger. |
| Non-disruptive |
Since the insulation is added to the exterior of the
building, you do not have to shut your business down and protect its
contents from over spray while your building
is being insulated |
| Flexible |
The foam has 300% elongation and since it is fully adhered,
it will move with the roof. The reflective coating helps by working
with the foam as a system to eliminate thermal shock. |
| Internal gutters |
Internal gutters are notorious for overflowing into the
building. Sprayed foam can be used to seal the internal gutters
keeping the water out of the building and on the roof where it belongs. |
