Did you know that insulation can help provide your business with a tight envelope seal that will weatherproof your entire building? Insulation serves various purposes within a commercial building, and there are many kinds of insulation to input during the construction process for commercial buildings. Whether you are deciding on thermal, reflective, or board insulation – G&M Services can expertly install many different insulation types. Read on to learn what you need to know about commercial building insulation!
Thermal Insulation within Commercial Buildings
The installation of thermal insulation in your commercial buildings is a critical component of the construction process. Thermal insulation will provide a barrier in between ceilings, walls, and floors. The thermal insulation barrier increases sound-proofing, provides proper fire protection, keeps cooling and heating inside of your building, and can also control noise levels. The noise and fire protection control are two very important aspects for apartment buildings, whose density could pose a serious fire hazard. If you’d like to learn more about fire protection in your buildings, G&M Services also provides firestop services.
Reflective Insulation Installation
Reflective insulation is usually referred to as foil insulation in some commercial building installations. One interesting fact about reflective insulation is that it can’t degrade over time and isn’t affected by moisture. Since it is fully resistant to weather changes, it is an excellent selection as a vapor barrier. It isn’t toxic in comparison to some other harsher forms of insulation. Still, it can be dangerous as an electrical hazard in any buildings with some faulty wiring, so its application has to be carefully considered beforehand.
Board Insulation Installation
You probably have not heard of board insulation before, but it is a great installation choice for its specialized facilities. Board insulation is a rigid barrier between ceilings, walls, and floors. G&M Services uses various fire-rated brands such as Owens Corning, Thermafiber, and Rockwool for fire-rated applications with board insulation. Thermafiber has received many awards and is SAFETY Act Designated, limiting your liability in the event of an act of terrorism.
