Metal-building insulation and interior-liner systems

Coordinate insulation, liner, structure, performance, and installation sequence

The Simple Saver® System is a metal-building insulation and interior-liner system manufactured by Thermal Design, Inc. It uses a fabric liner, support straps, insulation, thermal-control components, and project-specific details for low-rise commercial roof and wall assemblies. It is different from an insulated metal panel: the insulation and liner are installed as components within a metal-building assembly rather than arriving as a factory-laminated roof or wall panel.

Total Cladding and Roofing can review and quote Texas projects involving the Simple Saver System.

Simple Saver system components

Thermal Design describes the Simple Saver System as a custom-made insulation and finishing system for low-rise commercial roof and wall construction. Typical assemblies include Syseal fabric, support straps, insulation, thermal breaks, fasteners, and accessories selected for the building and performance requirements. Current design, installation, safety, and technical information should come from the official Thermal Design Simple Saver literature.

New metal-building applications

For new construction, the system must be coordinated with the primary structure, purlins or girts, roof and wall panels, erection sequence, roof openings, penetrations, bracing, eaves, bases, corners, insulation layers, vapor-control requirements, interior appearance, equipment, and other trades.

Installation sequence affects access and safety. Project documents should state who supplies and installs each component, who designs the insulation assembly, how penetrations and repairs are handled, and which temporary and permanent safety measures apply.

Retrofit roof and wall applications

A retrofit can add insulation and a finished interior liner to an existing metal building, but the existing assembly and operations must be surveyed. Roof leaks, corrosion, loose panels or fasteners, deteriorated structure, wet existing insulation, roof openings, equipment, electrical or fire-protection systems, interior clearances, and access constraints should be resolved in the scope.

Retrofit work may require coordination above active production, storage, offices, or tenants. Protection from fibers, dust, falling objects, weather, and disruption should be planned. Existing services should be identified before straps, fabric, insulation, or fasteners are installed.

Simple Saver compared with insulated metal panels

  • Simple Saver: a field-installed insulation and liner assembly coordinated with a separate metal roof or wall system.
  • Insulated metal panels: factory-manufactured sandwich panels that combine metal facings and an insulating core in each panel.

Neither approach is automatically better for every building. Structure, desired interior finish, thermal and vapor performance, fire requirements, roof replacement needs, operating conditions, detailing, schedule, and lifecycle goals guide the selection. Our insulated metal panel page explains the alternative panel approach.

Information needed for a Simple Saver quote

  • Building address, use, dimensions, bay spacing, roof slope, eave height, and structural drawings
  • New-construction or retrofit status and the exact roof and wall scope
  • Required thermal, condensation, vapor, fire, acoustic, interior-finish, and energy-code criteria
  • Roof openings, equipment, bracing, purlins, girts, services, and interior obstructions
  • Existing roof, wall, structure, insulation, leak, corrosion, and repair conditions for retrofit work
  • Access, lifting, storage, phasing, shutdown, protection, safety, inspection, and closeout requirements

Thermal and condensation design boundaries

R-values, U-factors, condensation behavior, vapor control, fire classifications, and energy-code compliance are assembly-specific. Published values should not be applied to a different insulation thickness, compression, framing, fastener pattern, climate condition, or building operation without appropriate design confirmation.

TCR can supply contractor field information and install the defined scope. Engineering, energy analysis, hygrothermal analysis, fire design, code compliance, and other licensed or specialist design remain with the responsible qualified parties when required.

Scope and closeout controls

A bid-ready scope should identify the exact system, insulation layers, fabric, straps, thermal breaks, fasteners, accessories, repair methods, openings, penetrations, edge details, installation sequence, safety responsibilities, protection, inspection points, and closeout records. Current Thermal Design instructions and project documents take precedence over generic metal-building insulation practices.

Frequently asked questions

Simple Saver Insulation Systems FAQs

What project types may lead a team to review Simple Saver insulation systems?

Review Simple Saver insulation systems when a metal-building insulation and fabric-liner project aligns with the building, drawings, performance criteria, existing conditions, and procurement route. The exact product family and complete assembly still need to be identified in the project documents.

What product information is needed before pricing Simple Saver insulation systems?

Provide the current product name, profile or system, material, thickness or gauge, finish, accessories, specification, details, approved substitutions, required tests, and closeout requirements. Product-family names alone are not enough for a reliable quote.

How are existing conditions checked for a Simple Saver insulation systems project?

The review should document existing framing, liner layout, support straps, insulation layers, thermal and vapor control, penetrations, interior access, sequencing, and finish expectations. Field dimensions and observed conditions should be reconciled with drawings before final quantities, fabrication, or installation sequencing are fixed.

Which drawings and details should be available for review?

Useful documents include plans, elevations, sections, panel or product schedules, openings, curbs, transitions, perimeter details, drainage, structural support information, finish schedules, specifications, and the latest addenda or approved submittals.

How do substrate preparation and compatibility affect the scope?

The specified product needs a suitable substrate and preparation method. Moisture, contamination, corrosion, weak materials, previous coatings, movement, tolerances, and incompatible sealants or accessories can change the proposed work.

How should penetrations, transitions, and accessories be coordinated?

Treat them as part of the assembly. Responsibility should be clear for curbs, openings, flashings, trims, sealants, fasteners, closures, edges, roof-to-wall transitions, equipment interfaces, and work by adjacent trades.

Which submittals, samples, and tests may be required?

The contract documents may call for product data, shop drawings, color or finish samples, mockups, calculations, test reports, pullout or adhesion testing, field observations, and closeout records. Requirements should be identified before procurement.

What warranty and closeout information should be identified before award?

The bid should state the requested warranty route, responsible parties, required inspections, documentation, registration steps, maintenance information, and exclusions using the current written project and product requirements.

Can a Simple Saver insulation systems project be completed at an occupied facility?

It may be possible with a plan for deliveries, storage, lifting, access, exclusion zones, temporary enclosure, interior protection, shutdowns, noise, dust, odors, weather limits, and daily handback.

What should be sent with a request for a Simple Saver insulation systems quote?

Send the property address, building use, current drawings and specifications, product schedule, photographs, dimensions, known existing conditions, performance requirements, site restrictions, bid form, question deadline, and target construction period.
