Pipe Insulation Foam
Pipe insulation foam is a pre-formed cross-linked polyethylene tube sized to fit standard refrigerant, water, and air-conditioning lines. The closed-cell wall is waterproof and acts as its own vapour barrier, so chilled lines stay dry on the outside and hot lines stay hot down the run, with low thermal conductivity holding losses to a minimum. Tubes are light, soft, dust-free, easy to cut and install, and odourless. They are available with a longitudinal slit for retrofit and can be supplied with an aluminium foil jacket where radiant heat or UV exposure is a concern.
