aesthetics. So, why choose a Legacy Building Solutions
structure for your next athletic facility? There are many reasons.
1
..Lower maintenance costs. Legacy uses PVC fabric
..cladding and an interior liner in their insulated buildings.
They also insulate the frame cavity usingR-30 fiberglass
insulation. The interior fabric liner provides an excellent
vapor barrier as well as a smooth, bright finish on the interior
of the building which also improves performance output
from other light sources within the building, such as LED.
" The low maintenance inside a fabric building allows for
more time and less money on building upkeep. " Humbert said.

..More energy efficient. Fabric has thermally
..nonconductive properties, meaning it doesn't
transfer heat or cold as much as steel and concrete
would. The inside of Legacy's buildings feels cooler on
hot days and warmer on cold days, even if the building is
not insulated.
..Better acoustics and lighting. In sports, good
..acoustics are important - for coaches, athletes, and
the community. Legacy's fabric structures smooth interior
liner result in less echo and sound or noise vibration.
" With the interior liner, we have better acoustics
compared to a steel-sided structure, you won't have as
much echo or vibration throughout the building, "
Humbert said.
Legacy's bright white interior fabric
allows for more reflective lighting and
visibility for athletes and coaches.
From start to finish, Legacy takes pride in creating custom
buildings that best fit any sport and guarantees coaches and
athletes will love the finished product. For more information,
