As the thermal-controlled facilities height expands up to 120’, another opportunity to save energy is to seal the stack joints. Building movement of a thermal-controlled building and the ensuing pressure created puts extreme stress on these penetrations creating vapor barrier discontinuity. An intact vapor barrier over the stack joints prevents air infiltration. Vapor Armour’s Horizontal Stack Joint permanently seals this connection.

Includes a 15-year “No Ice-No Condensation-No Cost” Warranty
From our 17 years’ experience, another opportunity to save energy is to seal the expansion joints. Building movement of a thermal-controlled building and the ensuing pressure created puts extreme stress on the expansion joints creating
vapor barrier discontinuity. An intact vapor barrier covering the expansion joints prevents air infiltration. Vapor Armour’s patented Vapor Shield™ detail permanently seals this connection. Eliminates air infiltration, ice, and condensation.
• will not disrupt business operations during installation
• is compatible with every roof system
• immediately eliminates air infiltration
• includes a 15-year ‘No Ice. No Condensation. No Cost.’ warranty
• has a retrofit thermal value of R-20, R-50 and R-80
Sometimes building movement literally forces the IMP joints to burst at the seams - especially if the butyl sealant is non-existent or poorly applied. This air infiltration can be permanently eliminated from IMP joints. An intact vapor barrier “locking” the IMP seams prevents air infiltration. Vapor Armour’s patented Vapor Lock™ permanently seals these connections.

In hurricane and seismic risk areas, the ammonia piping constructed through the roof deck is often poorly sealed – if at all. Building movement of a thermal-controlled building and the ensuing pressure created puts extreme stress on these penetrations creating vapor barrier discontinuity. An intact vapor barrier “locking” the penetrating pipes prevents air infiltration. Vapor Armour’s patented Pipe Lock™ permanently seals this connection.

CUSTOMIZED APPLICATIONS
Over and above our common seals (Exterior Compression™, Interior Separation™, Pipe Lock™, Vapor Lock™) we are often tasked with one-off custom approaches. Again, Vapor Armour™ STOPS vapor drive, STOPS air. Here we are stopping air, in details that are not limited to the normal building envelope.
Approximately 15 separate electrical conduits enter a 38° cooler
Vertical Seal between a 38° cooler and -10° freezer
1. We take regular and thermal imaging pictures of your ice and condensation concerns.
2. We walk the exterior perimeter and the cooler/freezer interiors.
3. If necessary, we obtain core samples from the exterior roof deck to ascertain the extent of the ice contamination
4. We talk with you and your team regarding where the vapor barrier has been breached.
5. We will then prepare our Forensic Evaluation report have a conference with you to discuss its findings and dimensions to create a scope of work and Budget.
6. Finally, Vapor Armour will send you a current Google Earth photo of your facility, highlighting the ice/condensation concerns, and a proposal for your budgets
