Hot Water Pipe Insulation
Overview
Hot-Water Pipe Insulation is used to insulate residential and commercial hot-water, non-seam pipes, providing improved thermal efficiency. Insulating hot-water pipes reduces heat loss and can raise water temperature 2°F-4°F. Our pipe insulation provides excellent resistance to water and water vapor and has a temperature range of -160°F to 200°F. The insulation is flexible and is 100% pre-slit for easy installation.
Benefits
- Protects personnel from heat and burns
- Prevents freezing and sweating for cold-water pipes

1. Prepare pipes
Before beginning insulation, remove any dirt or grease from pipes with a small towel and mild soap and water. Allow the pipes to completely dry.
2. Measure
Measure your pipes with a measuring tape to determine the appropriate size pipe insulation. Cut the insulation to the length of the pipes.
3. Allow for valves and joints
Using your scissors, carve out spaces for valves and T-joints.
4. Secure
Secure pipe insulation with duct tape.
