Fiberglass “Batt” Insulation
Fiberglass Insulation is blankets of woven long-strands of fiberglass. In most cases it is laminated on one side to a vapor-barrier facing. You can order different protective facings that all serve as a vapor retarder.
- Standard insulation rolls have either 2- 3″ tabs or 1 – 6″ tab
- Most orders include double face tape and patch tape.
- Cut lengths are normally 30 to 150 in length.
- Insulation width: 4′, 5′, and 6′
- Thickness: 2.75″ (R-8), 3″ (R-10), 3.5 (R-11), 4″ (R-13), 6″ (R-19), 8″ (R-25)
- Our standard insulation is WMP VR-R+ (PLUS) facing instead of VR-R.
Not all Fiberglass Insulations are the same
- Fabric and Banding: Be aware there are insulation systems that are of low quality. Some sellers utilize fabric that is thin and cheap, as well as use plastic nylon strapping in place of traditional metal banding. Most erectors will complain about this kind of banding twisting up on the screw as they try to attach the strapping.
- Naima 202-96 compliance. This is an independent test performed by Home Innovations. This test is the gold Standard for Flexible Fiberglass Insulation to be Laminated for Use in Metal Buildings. When the facing is laminated to the fiberglass it crushes the fiberglass. The test ensures that after manufacturing the product unrolls to the specified R-value. Some manufacturers do not want to pay for this test and say they do in-house testing. In these cases, the product often arrives from these manufacturers with less than claimed performance. Simply put, it means other insulation outlets, R-19 (6″) insulation may show up at the job site as 4″ or 5″ with a lower R-Value! Our NAIMA 202-96 compliance guarantees you get the R-value you ask for.
- Comcheck- Energy Compliance Certificate COMcheck is a program put out by the department of energy. This program models buildings in a compliance software to verify government energy code performance as it relates to insulation. The certificate will specify a percentage equal to or better than code requirements. COMCheck certificates available on request
- Secure Price: Some firms will indicate that they have the option to increase the price based on insulation availability. This means these firms can process the order and then hit the customer with an increase at the last minute before shipping. At that point, the customer is stuck and may have to wait several weeks to get their insulation delivered if they don’t accept the price increase. A few steel building outlets are doing this same tactic.
With Factory Steel Overstock, there are no surprises. There is never a possibility of a price increase after the initial order! Insulation is normally delivered within 2-3 weeks and the customer is called within 48 hours of delivery.

Installing Single Layer Fiberglass Insulation
- You simply place the insulation roll over the top of the roof purlins and / or wall girts. This is done prior to the exterior metal panels being installed.
- The fiberglass rolls are essentially sandwiched between the interior metal and the exterior sheeting.
- The vapor barrier (usually white finish) faces towards the inside of the building, giving the building a clean finished look. We always Re-enforce this facing so that our customers have the sturdiest backing. With a single layer application, you can achieve R-Values up to R-25 (8″), but not higher. We recommend only applying up to 19″(6″) on the sidewall so that there is no unbalanced sheeting appearance on the sidewalls.
- The 3” tabs are to be rolled over and stapled. Orders come with double-sided tape for easy adherence to building, and a small supply of patch tape to assist with minor tears if needed
Simple Installation Procedure for Double Layer Insulation System:
The great thing about fiberglass insulation is you can just add an additional layer and increase your R-value. The highest R-value you can have with a single layer of insulation is R-19 which is 6”. Your purlin depth determines the thickness of your bottom layer.
- Faced fiberglass (we always include a reinforced faced backing) rolls are installed between the purlins and/or girts, filling the cavity. This cavity is important, for it allows the insulation to maximize its efficiency.
- This insulation is secured by banding that is screwed to the underside of the purlins. An additional layer of unfaced insulation is then placed over the top of purlins or girts, creating a double-layer high R-Value system.
Insulation 101
Most people are familiar with fiberglass insulation. It is what was in their attic when growing up–though there have been improvements on its facings.
Steel building insulation is blankets of woven long-strand fiberglass that are laminated on one side to a vapor-barrier facing. Facing materials are applied to fiberglass insulation blankets to serve as a vapor retarder as well as a protected cover over the fiberglass. This vinyl-reinforced backing is far more durable than vinyl alone.
