Post Frame Building Insulation

Pole Barn or Post Frame Buildings are typically constructed using wood framing with steel roofing and siding. Steel roofing is a highly conductive material in terms of heat transfer. In a non-insulated pole barn there will be a large amount of heat transferred in an out. During hot summer months when the sun is beating down on the roof, most of that heat will penetrate into the building. In the winter, any heat created inside of the building will easily escape.

Proper insulation is critical for use in buildings that contain livestock of any kind. Heat stress is dangerous to dairy cows, cattle and poultry. Studies have shown that temperatures above 80 degress led to a noticeable decrease in production of milk from dairy cows. Extreme heat can have an equally negative effect on poultry. Turkeys and chickens need to maintain a constant body temperature as heat stress in female birds can cause a decrease in the production of eggs and smaller egg size.

Reflective bubble insulation creates a barrier that reflects up to 97% of the radiant heat from the sun's rays. EcoFoil's highly reflective surface provides superior protection against radiant heat and gives a nice clean, finished appearance to the interior of the building.

Under Concrete Slab Insulation

Protect concrete slabs against thermal energy transfer, moisture vapor and radon with EcoFoil Ultra Under Concrete Barrier. This patented reflective bubble insulation is an industry leader. No other under concrete bubble can match EcoFoil's quality and performance.

Pole Barn Wall Insulation

Inhibit condensation and mold buildup in your building with EcoFoil Reflective Bubble Insulation. EcoFoil will allow your building to maintain a more uniform temperature for energy efficiency and cost savings.

Roof Insulation for Post Frame Buildings

Make your post frame building energy efficient by using EcoFoil reflective bubble insulation on the underside of your roof. EcoFoil is a highly reflective surface that blocks radiant heat from entering and becoming trapped in your building.

Benefits of using Bubble Foil Insulation in Post Frame Buildings:

• Effective in extreme temperatures-both hot and cold
• Strong but clean, lightweight and flexible
• Easy installation
• Safe to handle with no special clothing or breathing equipment
• Cuts and installs easier than fiberglass
• Reflects 97% of Radiant Heat
• Easily stapled, nailed or glued into place
• Waterproof, Non absorbent surface

Calculating Square Footage for Post Frame Buildings

Please use the following calculation to determine the total square footage needed for your installation.

(Height x Width) x 2= X
(Height x Length) x 2= Y
Roof Pitch Calculation x Length = Z (See attic square footage calculator for roof pitch calculation »)
X + Y + Z = Total Square Footage
