2. Trace heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

   This protects the pipe from freezing. [1] Electric heat tracing, heat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels using heat tracing cables. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of

3. 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. [3]

4. Vapor barrier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_barrier

   For building in most parts of North America, where winter heating conditions predominate, vapor barrier are placed toward the interior, heated side of insulation in the assembly. In humid regions where warm-weather cooling predominates within buildings, the vapor barrier should be located toward the exterior side of insulation.

5. Removable insulation blanket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Removable_insulation_blanket

   Removable insulation blankets for hot components: used to prevent heat from escaping components by covering the surface of component with insulation materials that slow the transfer of heat. Removable insulation blankets for cold components: used to prevent external heat from affecting a chilled pipe. Also used to prevent condensation from ...

6. List of insulation materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_insulation_materials

   This is a list of insulation materials used around the world. Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value. R-value at 1 m gives R-values normalised to a 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) thickness and sorts by median value of the range.
