        "text": "Spray foam insulation is generally the most effective choice for a metal-framed barndominium. Metal panels transfer heat rapidly, making thermal bridging and condensation significant concerns during hot summers and cold desert nights. Closed-cell spray foam seals directly to the metal exterior, creating a continuous vapor barrier that prevents moisture buildup and air leaks. Traditional fiberglass batts are cheaper upfront, but they can sag, leave gaps against steel framing, and trap moisture if a vapor barrier fails.",
