Insulating Boiler/Chiller Pipe Systems

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, any surface hotter than 120°F should be insulated, including boiler doors, steam drum covers, access doors, and connecting pipes. Without proper insulation, valuable energy literally radiates away, costing you money, and creating unnecessary safety risks.

Why Boiler Pipes Should Be Insulated

Operating a boiler requires significant energy. When pipes carrying steam or hot water are left uninsulated:

Chiller & Boiler Pipe Insulation

Energy Loss from Leaky Ducts

Heat leaks into mechanical rooms and unused spaces, wasting energy and driving up operating costs.

Chiller & Boiler Pipe Insulation

Higher Utility Costs

Unsealed ducts force your HVAC system to work overtime to maintain temperature, increasing energy consumption.

Chiller & Boiler Pipe Insulation

Uncomfortable or Unsafe Work Areas

Escaping air raises ambient temperatures, creating uncomfortable environments and potential safety concerns.
