Commercial Insulation FAQs

Refrigeration and steam pipes are almost certain to attract moisture. Moisture is a bad thing for any pipe as it can cause corrosion. Insulation creates a protective barrier against the harmful effects of moisture.

Yes, we can create insulation with a variety of colors to help you and your employees quickly identify what type of pipe the insulation covers. If there is a certain color you want your insulation to be, contact our insulation company to discuss it.

The time it takes to install insulation will depend on several factors such as the length of the pipes to be insulated, accessibility, and types of insulation used. When you discuss your insulation needs with us, we will provide you with a time estimate.

When it comes to pipe insulation, you have many options. These options include fiberglass, polyisocyanurate, and mineral wool insulation. Our industrial insulation company has many of these options available to use.

Pipe insulation helps prevent heat loss in hot water pipes and protects against freezing in cold water pipes. It can reduce energy costs by keeping water hot for longer periods and preventing pipes from bursting in cold weather. Additionally, pipe insulation can reduce noise from water flow and extend the life of your plumbing system.

Spray foam insulation offers several advantages over traditional insulation materials. Below are a few advantages:

• Superior Air Sealing: Significantly reduces energy loss and lowers utility bills by creating a tight barrier against drafts.
• Excellent Insulation: Maintains consistent indoor temperatures, improving overall comfort and energy efficiency.
• Fills Irregular Spaces: Can fill even the smallest gaps and irregular areas, ensuring a more comprehensive and effective insulation.
• Durable and Long-Lasting: Resists settling and maintains its effectiveness over time, extending the lifespan of your heating and cooling systems.
• Moisture Control: Helps prevent moisture intrusion, reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth.
• Noise Reduction: Acts as a sound barrier, making your home or building quieter and more peaceful.
• Enhanced Structural Integrity: Adds strength to building structures by filling and bonding to surfaces, improving overall stability.

Polyurethane insulation is a type of foam insulation that is known for its high R-value (insulation value) and excellent air-sealing properties. It is commonly used in residential and commercial buildings for insulating walls, attics, and floors. Polyurethane insulation is also used in industrial settings to insulate pipes, tanks, and other equipment, helping to maintain temperature and prevent energy loss.

Insulation jacketing is a protective covering placed over insulation materials to prevent damage from moisture, physical impact, and other environmental factors. It is particularly important for commercial and industrial properties where insulation is exposed to harsh conditions. Jacketing helps maintain the integrity of the insulation, ensuring it continues to perform effectively and extending its lifespan.
