The RIDGLOK® Vertical Standing Seam Insulated Panel System consisted of 0.024 stucco-embossed aluminum metal jacketing, in White color, laminated to 1.5” of polyisocyanurate insulation board (R-value of 10.3), using a straight pan roof system. The storage tank insulation project was completed in February, 2013.
The RIDGLOK® Vertical Standing Seam Insulated Panel System is used for freeze protection in fire protection tanks. The standing seam insulation panels can be applied to all types of storage tanks, including flat bolted, chimed bolted, glass-lined, fiberglass, welded, stainless steel, and concrete. The storage tank does not need to be taken out of service to install the system. Insulating fire protection tanks with RIDGLOK® Vertical Standing Seam Insulated Panel System provides energy savings by reducing the amount of electricity needed to heat the tank.
