Owasso's growth has brought plenty of steel buildings: shops and warehouses along the US-169 and Highway 20 corridors, small business buildings, churches and detached workshops on larger lots north and east of town.
Bare steel heats up quickly in the sun and cools fast at night, which creates condensation. Water drips onto equipment, inventory and floors, leading to rust and mildew. Fiberglass blankets help until the facing tears, and then the dripping comes back.
Closed-cell spray foam bonds to the steel, seals panel laps and fasteners, and keeps the metal warm enough that condensation stops. Every building gets a free site visit and a written plan.
Owasso tip
For buildings used by the public, ask early about fire code coatings over the foam so they are included in the plan.
Metal Buildings That Benefit Most
- ✓Dripping roofs on cool mornings
- ✓Rust on racks, tools and fasteners
- ✓Workspaces too hot by midday
- ✓Torn blanket insulation
- ✓High utility bills in offices or churches
- ✓New buildings that must meet energy code
How Much Foam Does a Metal Building Need?
About 1 inch of closed-cell foam usually stops condensation in an unheated building.
Heated and cooled buildings typically get 1.5 to 3 inches, roughly R-10 to R-20. Many owners put more on the roof than the walls. Open-cell foam is generally not used directly on metal.
