For this project, the Metalguard team replaced old cast iron downspouts with new PVC pipe.
In large industrial buildings the transfer of water through the building to the drainage systems is just as important as having a properly functioning roof.
In this building there are 7 internal gutters that are 9,700 feet in length. The internal PVC pipes transfer the roof water to the interior drainage system.
These are some pictures from the project.
Metalguard has been helping customers with insulation for over 25 years. We have insulated everything from large industrial buildings to ice rinks. These before and after photos are from a recent Metalguard insulation replacement project. If your buildings insulation looks like the before photos, our team can help!
Insulation is an essential component of metal buildings for several reasons. Here are some of the key benefits of insulation for metal buildings:
Temperature control: Insulation helps regulate the temperature inside the building by reducing heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. This can help lower energy costs and create a more comfortable working environment for occupants.
Energy efficiency: By reducing heat loss and gain, insulation can help improve the energy efficiency of the building. This can lead to lower energy bills and reduced environmental impact.
Moisture control: Insulation can also help prevent moisture buildup inside the building, which can lead to mold and mildew growth. Moisture control can also help prevent damage to the building’s structure and contents.
Noise reduction: Insulation can help reduce the amount of noise that enters or exits the building. This can create a more comfortable and productive working environment, especially in industrial or manufacturing settings.
Fire protection: Insulation can also provide a layer of fire protection for the building, slowing the spread of flames and reducing the risk of structural damage.
Regulatory compliance: Insulation is required for food and beverage workplaces to meet FDA requirements. Make sure to choose an insulation contractor with experience in this area.
Overall, insulation is a critical component of metal buildings that can provide numerous benefits for occupants and owners. Insulation can help regulate temperature, improve energy efficiency, control moisture, reduce noise, achieve regulatory compliance, and provide fire protection
