It is easy to install and works well on all kinds of pipework across project types. Kooltherm pipe insulation is a phenolic foam, rigid pipe section supplied in 1M lengths by Kingspan. This phenolic tube is known to give outstanding thermal insulation, fire resistance and moisture protection to any and all types of pipework.

We have a video on our Youtube Channel you can watch called Everything You Need To Know About Phenolic Pipe Insulation Kooltherm technical pipe insulation is also rated Eurofins Indoor Air Comfort Gold, which means this foam pipe lagging does not harm the surroundings or its air quality in any way. Best pipe lagging for confined spaces:Pipe is an industry standard pipe size found in most domestic heating and plumbing systems. Insulating your heating and plumbing pipes will ensure the system runs at maximum efficiency by reducing heat loss.

In principle this is all that there is to is, however there are a number of areas that might cause you difficulties. Here’s how to deal with them: Joining lengths of insulation Kingspan Kooltherm phenolic pipe insulation is long-lasting and durable. Due to its closed-cell nature, the thermal efficiency does not deteriorate with time. So Kingspan Kooltherm will bring you long-lasting energy savings. Kooltherm holds the highest possible BRE Green Guide rating of A+ and is manufactured to a BS EN ISO 14001: 2004 scheme, qualifying for the Responsible Sourcing credit. Kooltherm sections have a high-performingouter foil face vapour barrier which prevents moisture from reaching the phenolic material within. Lagging, or insulating, your pipes will ensure that the heat in your hot water it is not lost before it gets where it is needed. There are three main reasons to lag pipework:To choose the right Kingspan kooltherm phenolic foam pipe insulation for your application you will first need to know the type of pipe you are insulating and also its size or outer diameter. Copper pipes are thinner, so if the pipe size is 15mm, a 15mm pipe section will work for your application. Occasionally you will get bend in the pipe which you will need to follow with your run of insulation. The easiest way to deal with this is to notch our 30° cuts from the inside of the bend in the insulation. Asbestos Insulation; this is one to watch out for rather than use. Older types of lagging used to contain asbestos, so handle with care. For more information on dealing with asbestos see here Central heating pipes – all central heating pipes should be lagged as they go to the radiators. Eg pipes under wooden floors

Felt or Wool pipe insulation; These are “sleeves” or rolls of natural insulating materials which can be wrapped around the pipes to insulate them The process of applying the lagging to your pipes is relatively straight forward, especially if you have the right tools for the job. However before you start it is worth making sure you are safe to start. This Kooltherm Pipe Insulation Lagging from Kingspan is an outstanding insulation option for building services and HVAC systems. Its thin and efficient design makes it perfect for both new builds and renovation projects in different sectors such as leisure, residential, industrial, commercial and institutional. There are other options which can also be used, although we will concentrate on the split foam type in this project. These other options are relatively self-explanatory to fit once you have the concept of fitting which we explain below.The perfect solution for where Waterproof Pipe Lagging is required. Once sealed, it will not allow water ingress which can cause problems with water freezing under the insulation.

Low thermal conductivity allowsKoolthermpipe insulation to achieve higher standards of thermal efficiency, fire resistance and compressive strength than most other insulation materials. For straight runs:Measure the length of the pipe you have to insulate. Wipe the pipe surface clean and free of any oil or debris. Cut the Kingspan Kooltherm section using a sharp utility knife and slide it over the pipe. Use foil tape or adhesive to seal the ends of the insulation together.

Features & Benefits: Kooltherm Phenolic Pipe Insulation Lagging - 15mm x 15mm x 1m

This means you save on the energy otherwise spent to reheat water AND also save the expenses incurred by freezing pipes. In short, with the all-around performance of kooltherm pipe, you get savings all around! Make: These are often leading to outside and garden taps ( you can learn how to install an outside tap here). The premium performance of the thinnest and most efficient Koolthermpipe lagging insulates pipes like no other! It is CFC-free Phenolic foam is known to have little to no effect on sound waves. It does not absorb sound waves like mineral wool or fibreglass pipe insulation sections. Therefore Kingspan kooltherm is not the right product for you, if you are looking for some acoustic pipe insulation. Can you use Kingspan pipe lagging for outdoor pipe insulation?
