Reasons to Insulate Your Pipes

Pipe Insulation

Insulating your hot water pipes reduces heat loss and can raise water temperature 2ºF–4ºF hotter than uninsulated pipes can deliver, allowing for a lower water temperature setting. You also won't have to wait as long for hot water when you turn on a faucet. It's best to insulate all accessible hot water pipes and the first 3 feet of your cold water inlet pipes.

Benefits of Pipe Insulation

  • An immediate reduction in energy cost
  • Reduced surface temperatures of hot water pipes
  • maintain a pre-determined temperature
  • controlled condensation and limited corrosion on cold piping.

The types of materials used will depend upon whether the installation is underground, outside buildings, underground within buildings, or aboveground within buildings. Pipe insulation comes in many different types depending upon your needs.
