Installation Instructions:
Metal and Steel Building - Retrofit Wall White - Installation Instruction
- The Tempshield™ Insulation is installed with the “white side” towards the interior of the building.
- Pre-installation inspection - Check the roof area for clutter, water sprinklers, conduit and lights. Sprinkler systems are especially important. All water pipes must be below the Tempshield™ Reflective/Bubble/Bubble/White Insulation to prevent the possibility of freezing in the winter.
- Install 1”x 2” furring strips on the inside and perpendicular to the Z girts on 22” centers. Utilize 1 1/4” self-taping sheet metal screws to secure the furring strips to the Z girts.
- Butt the furring strips together and tape. Staple tape for reinforcement.
- Staple the edges of the Tempshield™ Reflective/Bubble/Bubble/White product to the furring strips with a 3/4” overlap at the seams.
- Tape the seams with a Tempshield™ Foil Tape (goal is an air-tight, snug seam seal).
- Staple product at approximately 4” intervals down the middle of the sheet into the furring strip parallel and centered.
Important: Review These Important Safety Guidelines Prior to Installation.
