Exposed external pipework in likely to freeze in winter when the air temperature drops below freezing and this can cause the pipes to burst. Pipes in Lofts When you have all the tools you’re ready to fit the insulation to the pipes. Using this split foam insulation this is relatively easy; split the insulation and feed it around the pipe so that the pipe is surrounded by insulation:

Which Pipes Should be Lagged?

You shouldn’t lag pipes underneath your tank in the loft, or in fact put any insulation under the tank at all, as you need the heat from the room below to keep the water warm and flowing. Types of Pipe Insulation for Lagging

Behind the pipe push the insulation so that each side of the split meets around the pipe. Then to ensure that it cannot become dislodged you should tape in in place. Sometimes people prefer to use cable ties, but it doesn’t really matter so long as the insulation is kept snugly fit around the pipe: Also, pipes insulated using Kingspan phenolic pipe insulation are completely protected from thier surroundings. This increases the dew point, thereby restricting keeping condensation and pipe sweating.

Armaflex Tuffcoat Outdoor Pipe Insulation - Features and Benefits:

Kooltherm pipe insulationis a highly efficient insulation material with very low thermal conductivity. Its thermal conductivity is only 0.021 W/mK at 10degC. This makes it one of the thinnest and most energy-efficient insulation materials available. It is also CFC-free and has zero Global Warming Potential, making it an eco-friendly choice for HVAC applications. As mentioned above, Kingspan pipe insulation is the thinnest and most efficient product in the market today. If you have to insulate pipes in a constricted space, where there isn’t much room for pipe wrap, then Kooltherm is the way to go. Suitable for all types of pipework: To prevent heat loss from any hot water pipes, or worst, any of the pipes freezing and potentially bursting they should be lagged. All Hot Water Pipes Manufactured in several different materials, the use of which is dependent on the application. Example materials include Beta Phenolic, Nitrile Rubber, EPDM Foam and Mineral Wool Fibre.
