2. Pipe insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_insulation

   The application of thermal pipe insulation introduces thermal resistance and reduces the heat flow. Thicknesses of thermal pipe insulation used for saving energy vary, but as a general rule, pipes operating at more-extreme temperatures exhibit a greater heat flow and larger thicknesses are applied due to the greater potential savings.

   Non-hazardous. Being fireproof, it will not smoke at all upon direct contact with flame, and is a two-hour firewall at a 3.5 in (89 mm) (or normal 2 in × 4 in (51 mm × 102 mm) stud wall) application, per ASTM E-814 testing (UL 1479). Great for sound deadening; does not echo like other foams. Environmentally friendly.

   Examples of renovation are post-insulation of a cavity wall and post-insulation of a sloping roof against the roof boarding or under the tiles. Note that every renovation must meet the minimum Rc value of 1.3 W/(m 2 ⋅K). If the current insulation has a higher insulation value (the legally obtained level), then this value counts as a lower ...

   This has triggered research on alternative insulating foam fitting the application, [3] which include polyethylene terephthalate (PET) [4] and polybutylene (PB-1). [5] The outer casing is usually made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Preinsulated pipes for district heating are described in European standards EN 253 and EN 15698-1.
